D m                           A m

        A#                    D m       C       
And it's like talking to a stranger


D m                         A m
Venetian candles penetrated its heart
A #                     D m       C
It trembles like talking to a stranger


D m                                     A m
And Oh Miss Jesus tell me where are your black eyes?

    A #                 D m       C
Your baby was talking to a stranger


D m                             A m
Souvent pour j'amuser les hommes d'equipage

A #                   D m       C
And it's like talking to a stranger
