You’re the Stranger

[Instrumental Intro]

[Chorus 1]

Don't hang that sign on me

You're the stranger

Don't try to talk to me

You're the stranger

[Verse 1]

On the seas

They came from far away

From the skies

Their silver birds of prey

[Verse 2]

In one day

Ten thousand years could change

We are fools

To live your pilgrim ways

[Chorus 1]

Don't hang that sign on me

You're the stranger

Don't try to talk to me

You're the stranger

[Verse 3]

And we drive

Five hundred miles this time

To the edge

Of crystal-cut blue sky

[Verse 4]

Silence breathes

South of the border line

Silent trees

Look back and wonder why

[Chorus 2]

Did Father and his Holy Son

Spread the word and point the gun?

And where the eagle used to fly

They carve their concrete in the sky

Tearing at our Mother's skin

Taking all her blood within

Remember how it used to be?

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 2]

Did Father and his Holy Son

Spread the word and point the gun

And where the eagle used to fly

They carve their concrete in the sky

Tearing at our Mother's skin

Taking all her blood within

Remember how it used to be?

Stand up again and say:

[Chorus 1]

Don't hang that sign on me

You're the stranger

Don't try to talk to me

You're the stranger

Don't hang that sign on me

You're the stranger

Don't try to talk to me

You're the stranger
