Em 
Well we all have a face 
        Am         Em 
That we hide away forever 
       Am                 C7 
And we take them out, and show ourselves 
     D                B7 
When everyone has gone 
         Em 
Some are satin, some are steel 
         Am                Em 
Some are silk and some are leather 
            Am         D        Em7    Em 
They're the faces of a stranger but we love 
Bm7        Em 
To try them on 

REPEAT INTRO 
 
||: 
 
        Em 
Well we all fall in love 
       Am            Em 
But we disregard the danger 
          Am            C7                   
Though we share so many secrets, there are 
D                 B7 
Some we never tell 
         Em 
Why were you so surprised 
         Am             Em 
That you never saw the stranger 
        Am             D             Em 
Did you ever let your lover see the stranger 
Bm   Em 
in yourself 
 
Bm        Bb+             Bm7 
Don't be afraid to try again 
D              Bm 
Everyone goes south 
Bb            Bm7    D 
Every now and then 
Bm              Bb+               Bm7 
You've done it, why can't someone else 
D                  Bm 
You should know by now, 
Bb+                    D     Bm 
You've been there yourself 
 
                    Em 
1st time:  Once I   used  to believe 
2nd time:  You will never understand 
 
        Am              Em 
I   was such a great romancer 
How the stranger is inspired 
        Am            C7 
Then I came home to a woman 
But  he   isn't always evil 
       D                  B7 
That I could not recognize 
And he is not always wrong 
        Em                     
When I pressed her for a reason 
Though you drown in good intentions 
     Am                Em 
She refused to give an answer 
You will never quench the fire 
       Am              D        Em7 
It was then I felt the stranger kick me 
You'll give into your desire when the 
Em       Bm7      Em 
Right between the eyes 
Stranger comes along
