Strange Life

             Dm
Its been a strange night
                        A
Radio Istanbul and a seasick flight
             Dm
And such a cold day
                             A
So many empty voices with important things to say
              Bb
Ah, but you smile
                                            Dm
Cause you know you wont be hanging for the trial
                                             G
Theyll have to judge you in absentia for a while
                                            C
As your [vast and gnarled soul?] touches down
         A
In a neeeeeeeeew town
             Dm
Its been a strange life

[Verse 2]
            Dm
Its been a bad year
                         A
Far too many Xs in the atmosphere
             Dm
Just like a dull knife
                                 A
You never know when youre gonna feel the bite
             Bb
Ah, but you laugh
                                   Dm
The immigration man he wants your autograph
                                          G
And you catch your sad reflection in the glass
                                          C
But you wash it from your memory like a stain
          A
In a sloooooooow drain
              Dm
Its been a strange life

[Verse 3]
              Dm
Its been a strange life
                                     A
Stumbling up the stairs and looking for the light
              Dm
There are no just laws
                                     A
You know one mans battle is anothers lost cause
              Bb
Ah, but you grin
                                                 Dm
Cause theres a sense of something coming on the wind
                                     G
And you really cant wait for it to begin
                                        C
And youre just another stranger in a strange town
         A
As you toooooooouch down
             Dm
Its been a strange life
