NEIL YOUNG
-------------------
STRANGER IN PARADISE


NOTE : This song is a piano song that you have to listen
if you want to sing and play guitar correctly.
Also, you have variations of basses on the intro
and at the end of the song, over a unique chord
...easier thing to do on a piano than on a guitar.
This is a beautiful song, so take time to learn it
and don't give up at the first try!

INTRO : Variations of basses on a F


Bb             C                  F
  Take my hand, I'm a stranger in paradise.
Dm              Gm         C              F
  All lost in a wonderland, a stranger in paradise.
Em F Am    Gm          C                   F
If I stand starry-eyed  that's a danger in paradise
Bb Dm                Gm        C        F
    for angels [?] from beside  a [?] like you.

F          Fm   Fm  F# Ab Bbm
I saw your face and I  ascended,
Gm         Bb           F         Gm
out of the common place  into the rare.
             F#              Bm
Somewhere in space I hang suspended
        Bb                             F
until I know there's a chance that you care.

                      Gm
won't you answer this loving prayer
C                 F
 of a stranger in paradise?
Dm                 Gm           C                F
 Don't leave me in dark despair  for all that I hunger for.
Em  F Am Gm              C                   Am
But open your angel eyes  to the stranger in paradise,
Bb Dm                 Gm      C                Fmaj7
    and tell him that he will be a stranger no more.
F1             F2
 a stranger no more
C
 a stranger...

Then, like in the intro : Variations on a F   then applaude, then cut.
