Standard (EADGBE)

 Well I'm a stranger here in this place called Earth

and I was sent down here to discover the worth

 Of your little blue planet third from the sun

Come on and show me what you've done

(main riff 2X)

 We've got the aero plane, we've got the automobile

We've got sky scrapin' buildings made of glass and steel

 We've got synthetic food that nearly tastes real

 And a little white pill that makes you feel "Hey!"

 A whole lot better when you get outta bed

You take one in the mornin' for the long day ahead

 We've got everything everybody needs to survive

Surely the good life has arrived

 I think your atmosphere is hurting my eyes

 And your concrete mountains are blacking out the skies

 Now I don't say that you've been telling me lies

 But why do I hear those children's cries

 I'm a stranger here, I'm just looking around

 I see the aero planes carrying the bombs

 Why, you've even found people to drop them on

 You know you can't keep what you take by force

 But it's only my first impression of course

 And I'm a stranger here on the planet Earth

(main riff 2X)

 We've got the rivers and the mountains and the valleys and the trees

We've got the birds in the sky, we've got the fish in the sea

 We've got the... Oh you crazy fools don't you know you had it made

 You were living in Paradise

 But take it from one who knows.. Who knows the gates of Heaven can close

I only pray that you take my advice... Because Paradise won't come twice

 Well I'm a stranger here in this place called Earth

And I was sent down here to discover the worth

 Of your little blue planet third from the sun

 I think I'll go back home where I come from

(main riff 4X)
