Intro 1
(E minor) (C major) (E minor) (C major)
Verse 1
Well, we all (E minor) have a face
That we (A minor) hide away forev (E minor) er
And we (A minor) take them out
And (C major) show ourselves
when (D major) everyone has gone (B major)
Some are (E minor) satin, some are steel
Some are (A minor) silk and some are (E minor) leather
They're the faces (A minor) of a stranger (D major)
But we'd love (B major) to try them

Well, we all (E minor) fall in love
But we (A minor) disregard the danger (E minor)
Though we (A minor) share so many secrets (C major)

(G minor) every now and (D major) then, (A minor) ooh (D major)
(G major) You've done it
(G minor) Why can't someone else? (D major)
(D major) You should know by (B minor) now
(B flataug) You've been there your (A major) self (B major)
Verse 3
Once I (E minor) used to believe
I was (A minor) such a great romanc (E minor) er
Then I (A minor) came home to a (C major) woman
That I (D major) could not recognize (B major)
When I (E minor) pressed her for a reason
She refused (A minor) to even answer (E minor)
It was (A minor) then I felt the (D major) stranger
Kick me right (B major) between the eyes

You'll give in (A minor) to your desire (D major)
When the stranger (B major) comes along
