Beautiful Stranger

E
If you ever hear that thunder

Put your eye to the sky, boy, and wonder
                A
Maybe there's a kingdom above the weather
                                                  E
Oh, and whether you're gonna get on in is up to him

E
If you ever hear that crying

In the distance like some siren
                A
Maybe there's a singer with no ring
                    E
Around their little finger, no love

         F#m
And If I lose my voice
     A                        E
If I have no choice but to go quiet
          F#m           A               E
Won't you sing for me a melody into the night there
           F#m                           A
Well, if I die too young, if the wolf he comes
          E
Fee-fi-fo-fum
     F#m                       A
If I die too young, oh, if the locust come
           E
Well then, run, run, run

Free

            E
If you ever hear that gunshot

You may think 'bout what you do but you don't got
      A                               E
Say a prayer, think of mother, I am a rock

E
If you ever hear that sound now

If the door gets kicked in here, they come now
         A
Think of others, be their cover
                  E
I am what they're not

         F#m
Pray for Paris
            A
They cannot scare us
            E
Or stop the music
          F#m
You got a sweet voice, child
A             E
Why don't you use it?

F#m                        A                        E
If I die too young, if the gunmen come, I'm full of love
   F#m               A               E
So release me, every piece of me, up above

(Up above)

E
Love my mama and my papa
E                                                   A
Love my sister, can't stand the coppers up in their choppers
           E
Oh, flying overhead, forty-nine dead
E
Singing, oh, my Lord, come carry me home

Oh, my Lord, come carry me home
            A
I'm singing oh, my God, oh, my Lord

Oh, my God, oh, my Lord

Oh, my God, oh, my Lord
       E
Oh, my Lord

         F#m                         A
And if I die too young for something I ain't done
         E
Carry my name every day
        F#m
Oh, I'm sorry
        A
Oh, I'm sorry
        E

          F#m            A          E
But sleep easy like baby Jesus in a manger
          F#m              A                E
Oh, sleep easy like little Jesus, beautiful stranger
E
Oh, beautiful stranger

     F#m                A                     E
If I die too young, let all that I've done be remembered
               F#m            A            E
And I'll sleep easy like baby Jesus in his manger
               F#m              A                E
And I'll sleep easy like little Jesus, safe from danger
      F#m              A                   E
Carry onward like some songbird, beautiful stranger
      F#m              A                   E
Carry onward like some songbird, beautiful stranger
E
Oh, beautiful stranger
