Stuck inside these streets it's like a human traffic jam.
People walk right over me now, they don't give a damn.
If I ask for death, would you give me a gun?
If I took your hand, would you turn and run?
Won't you pity me,
Just try to see,
I'm a stranger in the city.

Dm (xx0231@1) Bb (x1333x@1) Gm (355333@1) Dm (xx0231@1)D (xx0232@1)                   G (320003@1)                A (x02220@1)                  DAll (xx0232@1)my friends were saying that the streets were paved with gold.
D (xx0232@1)                 G (320003@1)                  A (x02220@1)             DI (xx0232@1)couldn't wait to get there from the stories I'd been told.
D (xx0232@1)                      G (320003@1)                A (x02220@1)            DThere's (xx0232@1)everything that I could want, it sounded like a dream.
Bb (x1333x@1)                           Gm (355333@1)                       Bb (x1333x@1)    A (x02220@1)    DmBut (xx0231@1)my money's gone   And I've got no-one.   Friends are nowhere to be seen.

Concrete jungle all around can't hear the birds and bees.
I've walked for miles, I can't believe what happened to the trees.
If I need someone, would you help me to get by?
If I come to you, would you give it a try?
I'm all alone,    So far from home.     I'm a stranger in the city.
