Title:		A World I Never Made
>From Album:	A Room With A View of the Blues
CThe late show is E7over
      Am            C7        FF#07
And the city's half asleep
CAnd I'm lE7ost in a Amworld
D7That's just too cold, too cold and G7deep.
CI've turned so many E7ways
       Am               C7      FF#07
And I'm spinning like a top
CI wish that E7I could get Amoff
Or that the D7worG7ld, that the world would Cstop.G7  
CHORUS:
	I'm Ca stranger and afraE7id
         Am             C7         FF#07
	I'm a stranger and afraid
	I'm Ca straA7nger and afraD7id
                      G7       C     FF#07
	In a world I never made.
CI'm always chasing E7dragons
     Am                     C7       FF#07
With a sword that's made of tin
CAnd I E7know in my Amsoul
D7There's no way that I can G7win.
CI try, oh, how I E7try
             Am                   C7       FF#07
But there's no place, no place to go
CThere's E7no one here who Amknows me
D7And no one G7here I Cknow.G7
