Strange Town by The Jam
Intro
G5, G5, G5, G5
Verse 1
Found myself in a strange town
Though I've only been here for 3 weeks now
I've got blisters on my feet
Trying to find a friend in Oxford Street
I bought an A to Z guide book
Trying to find the clubs and YMCA's
But when you ask in a strange town
They say "Don't know, don't care and I got to go mate"
Chorus
They worry themselves about feeling low
They worry themselves about the dreadful snow
They all ignore me coz they don't know
I'm really a spaceman from those UFO's
Verse 2
You gotta to move in a straight line
You gotta to walk and talk in four four time
You can't be wierd in a strange town
You'll be betrayed by your accent and manners
You gotta to wear the right clothes
Be careful not to pick or scratch your nose
You can't be nice in a strange town
"Coz we don't know , don't care, and we got to go mate"
Chorus
Rush my money to the record shops
I stop off in a back street, buy myself a snort
We got our own manifesto, to be kind to queers
I'm oh so glad the revolutions here.
Its nice and warm now!
Solo 1
C, Am7, F, G x2
Middle
I've finished with the clubs where the musics loud
Coz I don't see a face in a single crowd,
Theres no one there
I look in the mirror but I can't be seen
Just a thin green layer of Mister Sheen
Look-ing back at me-ee.
Oh-------oh-------------

Verse 3
Found myself in a strange town
Though I've only been here for 3 weeks now
I got blisters on my feet
Trying to find a friend in Oxford Street
I bought an A to Z guide book
Trying to find the clubs and YMCA's
But when you ask in a strange town
They say "Don't know, don't care and I got to go mate"
Chorus
They worry themselves about feeling low
They worry themselves about the dreadful snow
They all ignore me coz they don't know
I'm really a spaceman from those UFO's
