[Cm]
Oh, [Bb]
why do the [Ab] leaves on the mulberry [E] tree [Cm] whisper differently [Bbm] now?
[D] And why [C] is the nightingale singing at [Fm] noon on [Cm] the mulberry [Db] [Bbm] bough?
[Db]
[F] For some [Bbm] most mysterious [Db] reason, this [C] isn't the garden [F] I know.
[Dbm]
[Eb]
Now, that was only a [A] garden [Ab] a moment.
[Eb] Take [Db]
[C]
[Fm] my [Bb]
hand, I'm a [Eb] stranger in paradise.
[Cm]
Oh, lost [Fm] in a wonderland.
A [Eb] stranger in paradise.
If I stand [Ab]
starry [D]-eyed, that's a [Eb] danger in paradise.
[Cm]
Oh, [Ab] mortals who stand beside [D]
[F] an [Eb]
angel like you.
I saw [B] your face, and I [E]
ascended.
Out [Dbm] of the [Eb]
commonplace, into [Abm] the rare.
Somewhere in [G]
space, I [C] hang suspended.
[F] Until I know, [Bb]
there's a [Eb] chance that you care.
[Bb] Won't you [Am]
[Fm] answer the fervent
[D] prayer of [Eb] a stranger in paradise?
[Cm] Don't [Fm] send me in dark despair
[Ab] from [Cm] all that I hunger for.
But open [F] your angel
[D] arms to this [Gm] stranger in paradise.
[C] And tell him [Fm] that he need be [Abm]
a stranger no more.
