A Stranger In Town
Mel Torme
com Mel Torme, 1954
A A9 A A9 A Am7 A7
Just ar - rived on the sev - en - ten,
D6 D7/9+/5+) Dm/F Dm6 Bm7(b5)
Thought I'd see the old gang a - gain,
A A9 A C#m7 C#m7(b5) F#7
But you know how they come and go --
D6 F7 E7 D E7
I'm just a strang - er in town.
A A9 A A9 A Am7 A7
Ev'- ry - where, ev'- ry - one I see
D6 D7/9+/5+) Dm/F Dm6 Bm7(b5)
Seems to won - der who I can be;
A A9 A C#m7 C#m7(b5) F#7
And I swear, no one seems to care
D9 Fº A
About a strang - er in town.
Bridge 1:
AM7 C#m7 G#7 A7 F#7
I saw a cottage on a lonely old street,
C#m7 C#m7(b5) F#7
The weeds have grown 'round the gate;
AM7 C#m7 G#7 A7 F#7
Somehow I felt that you would wait here, my sweet;
D6 Bm7(b5) E7
But it looks like I'm too late.
A A9 A A9 A Am7 A7
Guess I'll leave on the twelve - oh - two,
D6 D7/9+/5+) Dm/F Dm6 Bm7(b5)
Can't be - lieve that there's no more you;
A A9 A A7M(9) C#m7(b5) F#7
Is there noth - ing for me? Will I al - ways be
D9 D6 E7 E7(13) A
A stranger in my own home town.
Bridge 2:
AM7 C#m7 G#7 A7 F#7
I asked around by no one knew you by name;
C#m7 C#m7(b5) F#7
I wonder where you are now?
AM7 C#m7 G#7 A7 F#7
I always hoped that things would be just the same,
D6 Bm7(b5) E7
And that you'd wait for me somehow.
A A9 A A9 A Am7 A7
Guess I'll leave on the twelve - oh - two
D6 D7/9+/5+) Dm/F Dm6 Bm7(b5)
Now that you have found some - one new;
A A9 A A7M(9) C#m7(b5) F#7
Is there noth - ing for me? Will I al - ways be
D9 D6 E7 C#m7(b5) F#7
A strang - er in my own home town?
Coda:
D6 Bm7(b5) AM7 F#7
It hurts to be a - lone with no one of your own
D6 Bm7(b5) E7(13) Fº AM7
When you're a strang - er in your own home town.
