Stranger In Town

G#m

[Verse 1]
A                   B/A      C#m/A
 I remember it was late one night
        A     B/A  C#m/A
In the middle of a dream
A             B/A      C#m/A
 Woke up in a pool of sweat
A          B       C#m
Thought I heard a scream
A                 B/A   C#m/A
 Ran over to the window sill
          A       B/A   C#m/A
Stuck my head out for a peek
             A                B/A        C#m/A
Dressed in black was a man I didn't recognize
 A       B   C#m        D
Running down my back street
                    C#m
My heart skipped a beat

[Chorus]
     E            A
You better watch out
  C#m               B
There's a stranger in town
     E            A
You better watch out
  C#m               B
There's a stranger in town
     E            A
You better watch out
 C#m            D
When he comes around
              C#m
Don't make a sound

[Interlude]
G#m

[Verse 2]
         A                     B/A      C#m/A
Got the morning paper and the headlines read:
 A     B/A     C#m/A
Danger to the queen
 A                        B/A           C#m/A
Buckingham Palace better tighten things up
     A        B        C#m
The son of a bitch is mean
 A                          B/A        C#m/A
Vendors on the corner just doin' their job
A            B/A      C#m/A
Acting like nothing's new
  A                    B/A        C#m/A
Scotland Yard's still looking for him
        A       B       C#m     D
But he doesn't leave a single clue
              C#m
What can they do?


[Chorus]
            E            A
(Hey!) You better watch out
  C#m               B
There's a stranger in town
     E            A
You better watch out
  C#m               B
There's a stranger in town
     E            A
You better watch out
 C#m            D
When he comes around
              C#m
Don't make a sound

[Instrumental]
G#m

[Verse 3]
 A                      B/A        C#m/A
Who's this man who fell out of the sky?
           A        B/A        C#m/A
What's he done and where's he live?
 A                      B/A C#m/A
How can a man who's a criminal
      A    B      C#m
Be a hero to the kids?
    A                          B/A     C#m/A
The old couple swear that the Ripper's back
      A       B/A     C#m/A
They say it's him all right
     A                   B/A C#m/A
The young girl says it's Je - sus
        A        B     C#m    D
And he won't be back again tonight
                C#m
I wonder who's right

[Chorus]
     E            A
You better watch out
  C#m                  B
There's a stranger in town (You better watch out)
     E            A
You better watch out
  C#m                  B
There's a stranger in town
     E            A
You better watch out
  C#m           D     C#m
When he comes around     (Ohh!!)

     E            A
You better watch out
  C#m                  B
There's a stranger in town (You better watch out!)
     E            A
You better watch out
  C#m                  B
There's a stranger in town (You better watch out!)
     E            A
You better watch out
 C#m            D
When he comes around
              C#m
Don't make a sound
