[Verse 1]
Am G E Am
Nineteen-ninety-one has come and the breakdown's been and gone,
Am G E Am
there's strangers in our town, they just turned up one day in their cars.
Am G E Am
And our little town has changed and the people say they're to blame.
[Chorus]
F Dm Am Am
There are strangers, there are strangers, there are strangers in our town.
[Interlude]
| Am | C D | Am | Em G |
[Verse 2]
Am G E Am
I talked to one today, I asked him how long he'll stay.
Am G E Am
"I used to have a home" he said "but when the breakdown came I left".
Am G E Am
And as he walked away, well, I knew I'd come to hate them.
[Chorus]
F Dm Am C
There are strangers, there are strangers, there are strangers in our town.
F Dm Am Am
There are strangers, there are strangers, there are strangers in our town.
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
Am G E Am
Something in our town is wrong 'cause in the square something's going on,
Am G E Am
there's a man stood on the steps and the people are cheering him.
Am G E Am
In a minute he'll tell them what to do and then I guess we'll see:
[Bridge and Solo]
Am G F G (Am)
a loss of humanity, a brave new humanity, a loss of democracy.
| Am | G | F | G |

| Am | G | F | G |
[End-Chorus]
F Dm Am C
There are strangers, there are strangers, there are strangers in our town.
F Dm Am Am
There are strangers, there are strangers, there are strangers in our town.
