A E Bm F#m E


[Verse]

       A 
this apartment
                 E
was rented for a reason
            Bm    F#m
but not the one
             E
others might suspect
        A
I'm not sure 
                           E
I am missed or if he even notices
         Bm  F#m
I'm not home 
                      E
but it doesn't really matter


[Chorus]

                      D
I came here to be a stranger
                 F#m
in order to have tried everything
                   D        E
and after all I am used to
                A
be treated like one

                      D
I came here to be a stranger
                 F#m
in order to have tried everything
                   D        E
and after all I am used to
                A
be treated like one


[Verse]

I grew old at nineteen
but it didn't seem to bother him
he said he liked what he saw
if he looked at me at all
so I packed what I had
determined to become 
someone rather than anyone


[Chorus]

                      D
I came here to be a stranger
                 F#m
in order to have tried everything
                   D        E
and after all I am used to
                A
be treated like one

                      D
I came here to be a stranger
                 F#m
in order to have tried everything
                   D        E
and after all I am used to
                A
be treated like one
