_ _ _ Well, legend has it that one day a stranger rolled into town.
[Ab] _ _ [Bb] _
_ And you know [Eb] as well as I do [F] that people don't take too kindly to [Ab] strangers.
[Bb] Especially when it has a different kind [Db] of way of doing things.
_ [Ab] Be that as it [Bb] may, there was something about [Eb] this particular [F] stranger that made a few of the [Ab] town [Bb] folks sit up and take [Db] notice.
The problem was, [Bb] there was a certain element in town that [Eb] didn't [G] take too kindly to some [Ab] stranger spreading new [Bb] ideas around.
[Db] _ This particular [Ab] element seemed to feel they had the [Bb] town under their [Eb] control.
[F] _
_ _ [Ab] [Bb] You might refer [Db] to this as an altitude problem.

In my [Cm] head I can [Ab] still [Bb] remember [Ab] the [Bb] very last place I came to [Ebm] know.
_ _ [Ab] [Bb] He didn't say [Cm] much of [Ab] anything, [Eb] spotted everybody and saw you put it down.
_ _ I wouldn't [Bb] admit that we [Ab] looked a little [Bb] different, [Ab] maybe [Bb] we just didn't [Cm] understand.
_ _ [Ab] I [Bb] knew that he never [Cm] really [Ab] do what [Eb] he's told.
But from his [Bb] eyes I could [Eb] see he really cared. _ _ _

_ _ _ [Ab] _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ was a moment of very [Ab] little [Bb] tension.
[Ab] Didn't [Eb] like the stranger playing a game.
_ Didn't want to face with that kind of [Ab] [Eb] situation.
Wasn't having the [Bb] time to make a change.

anyway, [Ab] this [Bb] certain element did whatever they could [Eb] short of [F] lynching to stop the stranger [Ab] from making [C] people sit up and listen.
[Db] And for the most part it [Ab] worked.
[Bb] But as luck would have it, there were a [Eb] few who would [Fm] listen.
