Lonely Stranger
Words & Music by Eric Clapton
Recorded by Eric Clapton, 1992, on "Unplugged"
Intro/Riff: E - F#m - B7 - E
(At option, alternate with E - F#m - A9 - E)
E F#m C#m7 F#7 G#m7 F#7 B7
I must be in-vis-I-ble...no one knows me.
E F#m C#m7 F#7 D A E
I have crawled down dead-end streets on my hands and knees.
(Riff twice)
E F#m C#m7 F#7 G#m7 F#7 B7
I was born with a ragin' thirst, hunger to be free;
E F#m C#m7 F#7 D A E
What I've learned through the years, don't encourage me.
(Riff once)
Refrain:
E F#m B7 C#m7 F#m7 G#m7 E7
'Cause I'm a lonely stranger here, will be all my days;
A Adim E C#m7 D A E
I don't know what's goin' on, so I'll be on my way.
(Riff four times)
E F#m C#m7 F#7 G#m7 F#7 B7
When I walk, stay behind — don't get close to me,
E F#m C#m7 F#7 D A E
'Cause it's sure to end in tears, so just let me be.
(Riff twice)
E F#m C#m7 F#7 G#m7 F#7 B7
Some will say that I'm no good; baby, I agree;
E F#m C#m7 F#7 D A E
Take a look, then walk away — that's all right with me.
(Riff once)
