Tonart: C# minor•
Verse 1
C#m
A
It's true there were all the men
Who said they were through
C#m
every time they gave you shelter
B
I know that I'm kind of mad
C#m
it's hard to hold the hand of anyone
B
Who reaching for the sky just to surrender
C#m
B
Who is reaching for the sky
C#m
just to surrender
A
And then sweeping out the jokers
B
You find he did not leave you very much,
C#m
not even laughter
C#m
he was watching for the card
B
that is so high and wild,
C#m
could ever need to deal another
B
He was just some Joseph
C#m
looking for a ma jor
B
He was just some Joseph
C#m
looking for a ma jor

Verse 2
B
C#m
I told you when I came, was a stranger
B
C#m
I told you when I came, I was a stranger
A
E
But now another stranger seems to want
you to ignore his dreams
B
as though they were the
C#m
burden of some other
B
We've seen that man before,
C#m
his golden heart, his magic cards,
B
but now it's rusted from
C#m
the elbow to the finger.
B
And he wants to trade the game,
C#m
he plays for shelter.
B
Yes, he wants to trade the game,
C#m
he knows the shelter.
A
E
You hate to watch another tired man
lay out his hand
B
like he was giving up the
C#m
only thing for her
B
And while he talks with
dreams to sleep,
C#m
notices there's a highway
B
that is curling up like smoke
C#m
above his shoulder
B
It's curling just like smoke
C#m
above his shoulder
I can't sit down,
E
but something makes you turn around
C#m
you can't close your shutter
B
C#m
You try to handle it, the road, it opens,
but you can't be afraid
C#m
you who are the stranger
C#m
A
E
you who are the stranger
B
I think it's time to board
C#m
another
B
Please un derstand I never
C#m
had a secret chart
B
To get me to the heart of this
C#m
or any other matter
B
When he talks like this
C#m
you don't know what he's after
C#m
you don't know what he's after
E
if you choose to fall ashore
Beneath the fridge that
C#m
Some endless river
B
Honey leaves the platform
C#m
called a sleeping car
That's formed, you realize
never was a stranger
C#m
B
And you say okay,
C#m
regret you some place later
A
And then sweeping up the jokers
B
You cry, and he did not leave you very much
C#m
I even laughed at him
C#m
he was watching for the card
C#m
We'll never meet a deal, never
B
He was just some Joseph
C#m
looking for a feature
B
He was just some Joseph
C#m
looking for a feature
A
That meeting on your windowsill
E
And they'll say, they'll say one day
B
you caused his will to weaken
C#m
With your love and warmth and shelter
B
And they're taking from his wallet
C#m
an old schedule of trains
They'll say
C#m
C#m
I was a stranger
