Verse:
[Dm7]Take my hand,[G9]hand, I'm a stranger in [C7]paradise,
[Dm7]All lost in a[G9]a wonderland, [Fm] a stranger in [C7]paradise.
If I stand s[Dm7]tarry-eyed,[G9] that's a danger in p[C7]aradise
For m[Am6]mortals who s[Dm7]stand beside [Fm] an a[G9]ngel like y[C]ou.
Bridge:
I saw your [Ab7]face, and I asc[Db]ascended
Out of the c[Bm6]commonplace[C7]ommonplace into the [Fm]rare.
Somewhere in s[E7]space I hang sus[A]suspended
Until I k[Dm7]know there's a c[G9]chance you [C7]care.
Chorus:
Won't you [Edim]answer the f[Dm7]fervent prayer[G9]prayer of a stranger in [C7]paradise?
Don't send me in d[Dm7]dark despair [G9] from all that I [C7]hunger for,
But open your a[D7]angel arms[G9]arms to this stranger in [Em7]paradise [Edim]
And tell him that[Dm7]that he need be [Fm] a s[G9]tranger no m[C]ore.
