          C       Csus4 C
I've been standing

     C       Csus4 C
On a corner

        Dm            Dm
Since a quarter after seven

      G7
I was down to my last cigarette

        C
And the clock in the window

     Dm          G7
At a quarter to eleven
[Verse]
      C       Csus4 C
I was watching

        C       Csus4 C
All the people

        Dm          Dm
Passing by me going places

         G7
Just the loneliest guy in the town

        C              Am
Looking for a friendly smile

             Dm7              G7
But all that I could see were faces
[Chorus]
    C                                     G7
And then, just like the taste of milk and honey

  G7                                   C
I found the stranger I've been looking for

       C                            G7
Like a wave, my cup of love was overflowing

           G7
I knew the stranger in the crowd and I would be

           | C Csus4 | C Csus4 |
Strangers no more
[Verse]
              C       Csus4 C
The love that comes

       C       Csus4 C
On the corner

     Dm          Dm
At a quarter to eleven

          G7
I thought you were to good to be true

       C
All my life I had believed

            Dm           G7
That angels only live in heaven
[Chorus]
    C                                     G7
But now, we share the taste of milk and honey

     G7                            C
Each day is sweeter than the day before

    C                  G7
My cup of love was overflowing

            G7
Because the stranger in the crowd and I would be

           | C Csus4 | C Csus4 |
Strangers no more

       C                            G7
Deep inside, my cup of love was overflowing

  G7                                   C
I found the stranger I've been looking for

       C                            G7
Like a wave, my cup of love was overflowing

           G7
I knew the stranger in the crowd and I would be

Strangers no more

I knew the stranger in the crowd and I would be

Strangers no more
[Outro]
        C
La, la, la

                        G7
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

        G7
La, la, la
