The Kindness Of Strangers

Intro: Bm - A - D (2x)

[Verse 1:]

       Bm          A                    D
He was nervous and excited when he walked in
    Bm                        A                    G
She poured him a drink, and they discussed the price of sinae
     Bm                Aiu
She'd unbuttoned just two buttonssi,
       D           G
Put her hand upon his thigh
          Bm                Aiu           D                 G
When that grown man started crying, she did not blink and eye

[Verse 2:]

         Bm              A                  D
She just held him in her arms like a little child
    Bm                             A                     G
She laid there and listened to him talk for a long, long while
           Bm           A                D              G
He rambled on about the lawyers, and the family torn in two
        Bm                   A
He said nights like this I'm empty
         D             G
I'm just trying to get through

[Chorus:]

                D
The kindness of strangers
         A
Tears of angels
          Bm
Wondering how to let go
         G
When the heartaches all you trust
             D
The quiet of Cathedrals
                   A
To cut through the evil
     Bm                          G
Some little ray of hope when you watch love turn to rust
          D/F#    Em
When your soul is bleeding
                A
What you really need is
                D/F#        -  G  (x3)
The kindness of strangers

[G  O:[   Bm - A - D (2x)

[Verse 3:]

   Bm                    A              D
He put on his coat as he headed for the door
    Bm               A                    G
She said, "You never got what you paid me for"
           Bm                        A
She said, "I don't need to keep this money"
       D                G
And he said, "Yeah, you do"
          Bm            A          D                   G
She said, "I don't pray much.  But honey I'll pray for you"

[Chorus:]

                    D
And the kindness of strangers
              A
The kisses of Angels
            Bm                 G
And letting go even though the heartaches all you trust
             D
The quiet of cathedrals
                 A
And the wings of eagles
         Bm                 G
To carry you some hope even though loves turned to rust
         D/F#   Em
When you really need it
                   A
Cause your soul is bleeding
                D/F#
The kindness of strangers
