Verse
[Dm7] [G9] [CM7]
Take my hand, I'm a stranger in paradise,
[Dm7] [G9] [Fm] [CM7]
All lost in a wonderland, a stranger in paradise.
[Dm7] [G9] [CM7]
If I stand starry-eyed, that's a danger in paradise
[Am6] [Dm7] [Fm] [G9] [C]
For mortals who stand beside an angel like you.
Bridge
[G#7] [C#]
I saw your face, and I ascended
[Bm6] [C7] [Fm]
Out of the commonplace into the rare.
[E7] [A]
Somewhere in space I hang suspended
[Dm7] [G9] [CM7]
Until I know there's a chance you care.
Chorus
[Edim] [Dm7] [G9] [CM7]
Won't you answer the fervent prayer of a stranger in paradise?
[Dm7] [G9] [CM7]
Don't send me in dark despair from all that I hunger for,
[D7] [G9] [Em7] [Edim]
But open your angel arms to this stranger in paradise
[Dm7] [Fm] [G9] [C]
And tell him that he need be a stranger no more.
