[Intro]
      

[Verse]
            
Buildings towe

              
r round me lik

ing for the ki

ll
            
For days I hav

              
en't eaten and

     
 I really do f

eel ill
            
If I cry for h

              
elp, would you

               
 hear my call?
            
If I stumble n

              
ow, would you 

             
let me fall?
            
Won't you give

              
 me a hand?   

              
Try to underst

   
and,    
              
That I'm a str

             
anger in the c


ity

         

[Verse]
            
Stuck inside t

              
hese streets i

       
t's like a hum

an traffic jam
            
People walk ri

              
ght over me no

    
w, they don't 

give a damn
            
If I ask for d

              
eath, would yo

             
u give me a gu

   
n?

 hand, would y

             
ou turn and ru

   
n?
            
Won't you pity

              
 me, Just try 

       
to see,
              
I'm a stranger

         
 in the city

         

[Bridge]
             
All my friends

             
 were saying t

             
hat the street

              
s were paved w

      
ith gold
             
I couldn't wai

             
t to get there

             
 from the stor

              
ies I'd been t

 
old
             
There's everyt

             
hing that I co

              
uld want, it s

             
ounded like a 

   
dream
            
But my money's

              
 gone   And I'

            
ve got no-one.

              
   Friends are

           
 nowhere to be

   
 seen

         

[Verse]
            
Concrete jungl

              
e all around c

      
an't hear the 

birds and bees
            
I've walked fo

              
r miles, I can

              
't believe wha

   
t happened to 

the trees
            
If I need some

              
one, would you

              
 help me to ge

      
t by?
            
If I come to y

              
ou, would you 

                
give it a try?
            
I'm all alone,

              
    So far fro

       
m home     
              
I'm a stranger

         
 in the city
