C5                     E5        C5                     E5
Those words are all remainders, echoes growing in the heart of twilight
G5           D5            G5   D5
They lay back laughing at naivety star
C5                    E5 
Awaken all those whispers


C5                     E5
The dusty shadow of a passing favour
G5        D5                G5         D5
I wouldn't say that you were ruthless or right
G5        D5          C5
I couldn't see from so far


F5                   C5
Was I chasing after rainbows? 
              E5                                 
One thing for sure you never answered when I 


A5
called


F5                    D5
And I wiped away the water from my face
   E5                          A5        
to look through the eyes of a stranger


    F5              F5             G5
For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd
D5                         A5
trading in my shelter for danger


    F5           F5               G5
I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down
       D5    D5          A5
in the eyes of a stranger 


C5                          E5
Can't tell the real from reflection 
C5                             E5
When all these faces look the same to me
G5      D5          G5      D5
In ev'ry city such a desolate dream
C5                        E5
Some days are strange to numbers
C5                             E5
Some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger
G5       D5                    G5           D5        
A year of Sundays seems to have drifted right by
G5          D5              C5
I could have sworn in one evening


F5                          C5
And I'm not seized in desperation
           E5                            
No steel reproaches on the table from be-


A5
fore


F5                          D5
But I still can feel those splinters of ice
  E5                          A5
I look through the eyes of a stranger

(repeat chorus)


   D5                   A5       
...walking away like a stranger
