Intro 

G    D  C 
G    D  C 

              G    D             C 
I am the stranger, you can’t see me 
              G           D           C 
I am the stranger, do you know what I mean 

verse 1 
   
                 G                  D         C   
I never gave the map, I walked here above the path 
               G                 D           C   
Jumping to the right, and then I jump to the left 
            G                  D      C   
On a secret path, the one that nobody knows 
              G                  D      C   
And I’m moving fast, on the path nobody knows 


verse 2 

             G           D        C   
And what I’m feeling, is anyone’s guess 
              G         D            C   
What is in my head, and what’s in my chest 
              G              D           C   
I’m not gonna stop, I’m just catching my breath 
                  G                     D           C   
They’re not gonna stop, please just let me catch my breath  

              G    D             C 
I am the stranger, you can’t see me 
              G           D           C 
I am the stranger, do you know what I mean 


verse 3 

               G              D          C   
That is not my dad, my dad is not a wild man 
             G                  D          C   
Doesn’t even drink, my dad he’s not a wild man 
            G                  D      C   
On a secret path, the one that nobody knows 
              G                  D      C   
And I’m moving fast, on the path nobody knows

I am the stranger

I am the stranger
