Duran Duran - "The Seventh Stranger" (From the album
"Seven and the Ragged Tiger")
I know this has already been posted, but here's a neater version
with the solo:
C Em C E
Those words are all remainders, echoes growing in the heart of twilight
Gm7 Dm Gm7 Dm
They lay back laughing at naivety star
C Em
Awaken all those whispers
C E
The dusty shadow of a passing favour
Gm7 Dm Gm7 Dm
I wouldn't say that you were ruthless or right
Gm7 Dm C
I couldn't see from so far
F C
Was I chasing after rainbows?
E
One thing for sure you never answered when I

called
F D
And I wiped away the water from my face
E Am
to look through the eyes of a stranger
Fmaj7 Fm G
For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd
D Am
trading in my shelter for danger
Fmaj7 Fm G
I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down
Dsus D Am
in the eyes of a stranger
C Em
Can't tell the real from reflection
C E
When all these faces look the same to me
Gm7 Dm Gm7 Dm
In ev'ry city such a desolate dream
C Em
Some days are strange to numbers
C E
Some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger
Gm7 Dm Gm7 Dm
A year of Sundays seems to have drifted right by
Gm7 Dm C
I could have sworn in one evening
F C
And I'm not seized in desperation
E
No steel reproaches on the table from be-

But I still can feel those splinters of ice

I look through the eyes of a stranger

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official DURAN DURAN tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
