Duran Duran - "The Seventh Stranger" (From the album
"Seven and the Ragged Tiger")

I know this has already been posted, but here's a neater version
with the solo:


C		      Em        C		      E
Those words are all remainders, echoes growing in the heart of twilight
Gm7	      Dm	    Gm7   Dm
They lay back laughing at naivety star
C		     Em	
Awaken all those whispers

C		      E
The dusty shadow of a passing favour
Gm7	   Dm		     Gm7	 Dm
I wouldn't say that you were ruthless or right
Gm7	   Dm	       C
I couldn't see from so far

F		    C
Was I chasing after rainbows? 
	      E					
One thing for sure you never answered when I

called

F		     D
And I wiped away the water from my face
   E			      Am	
to look through the eyes of a stranger


    Fmaj7	   Fm		  G
For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd
D			  Am
trading in my shelter for danger
    Fmaj7	Fm		 G
I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down
       Dsus    D 	  Am
in the eyes of a stranger 


C			   Em
Can't tell the real from reflection 
C			      E
When all these faces look the same to me
Gm7      Dm	     Gm7      Dm
In ev'ry city such a desolate dream
C			 Em
Some days are strange to numbers
C			      E
Some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger
Gm7	  Dm			Gm7	      Dm	
A year of Sundays seems to have drifted right by
Gm7	     Dm		     C
I could have sworn in one evening

F			   C
And I'm not seized in desperation
	   E				
No steel reproaches on the table from be-

F			   D
But I still can feel those splinters of ice
  E			     Am
I look through the eyes of a stranger
