_ _ [Cm] _ Oh, _ [Bb] why do the [Ab] leaves on the mulberry [E] tree [Cm] whisper differently [Bbm] now?
_ _ And [D] why is the [C] nightingale singing [Fm] at noon [Cm] on the mulberry [Db]
bough?
[Bbm] _ _ _ For some most mysterious [Db] reason, this isn't the garden [F] I know.
[Dbm] _ _ _ It's [Bb] paradise [Eb] now that was only a [A] garden _ a moment _ ago. _ _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ [C] _ [Fm] Take my [Bb] _ hand, I'm a [Eb] stranger in paradise.
[Cm] _ Oh, [Fm] lost in a _ wonderland.
_ A [Eb] stranger in paradise.
If I [Ab] stand starry [C] _ -eyed, that's a [Eb] danger in paradise.
_ [Cm] For _ [Ab] mortals who stand beside [D] _ _ 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.
[C] _ Won't you [Fm] answer the fervent _ [D] prayer of [Eb] a stranger in paradise?
[Cm] _ _ _ Don't send [Fm] me in dark [Ab] despair _ _ [Cm] from all that I hung before.
_ _ [Eb] 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.
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
