Strangers In Our Town

| Am         | C     D    | Am         | Em     G   |
| Am         | C     D    | Am         | Em     G   |
| Am         | Am         |

[Verse 1]

Am                      G            E                    Am
Nineteen-ninety-one has come and the breakdown's been and gone,
        Am               G                      E                   Am
there's strangers in our town, they just turned up one day in their cars.
        Am              G               E                     Am
And our little town has changed and the people say they're to blame.

[Chorus]

          F                    Dm                   Am               Am
There are strangers, there are strangers, there are strangers in our town.

[Interlude]

| Am         | C     D    | Am         | Em     G   |

[Verse 2]

  Am              G      E                        Am
I talked to one today, I asked him how long he'll stay.
   Am                      G                  E                Am
"I used to have a home" he said "but when the breakdown came I left".
    Am            G            E                Am
And as he walked away, well, I knew I'd come to hate them.

[Chorus]

          F                    Dm                   Am               C
There are strangers, there are strangers, there are strangers in our town.
          F                    Dm                   Am               Am
There are strangers, there are strangers, there are strangers in our town.

[Interlude]

| Dm         | E          | F          | E          |
| Am         | Am         |

[Verse 3]

Am                       G                   E                        Am
Something in our town is wrong 'cause in the square something's going on,
          Am               G             E                   Am
there's a man stood on the steps and the people are cheering him.
     Am                     G              E                  Am
In a minute he'll tell them what to do and then I guess we'll see:

[Bridge and Solo]

                Am    G               F     G             (Am)
a loss of humanity, a brave new humanity, a loss of democracy.
| Am         | G          | F          | G          |
| Am         | G          | F          | G          |
| Am         | G          | F          | G          |

[End-Chorus]

          F                    Dm                   Am               C
There are strangers, there are strangers, there are strangers in our town.
          F                    Dm                   Am               Am
There are strangers, there are strangers, there are strangers in our town.
