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