Mel Torme 
com Mel Torme, 1954 

A    A9    A    A9  A  Am7        A7 
Just ar - rived on the sev - en - ten, 
 D6         D7/9+/5+)  Dm/F       Dm6  Bm7(b5) 
Thought I'd see the old gang a - gain, 
 A       A9   A       C#m7 C#m7(b5)   F#7 
But you know how they come  and       go -- 
D6           F7     E7      D  E7 
I'm just a strang - er in town. 

A    A9    A     A9   A    Am7   A7 
Ev'- ry - where, ev'- ry - one I see 
D6      D7/9+/5+)    Dm/F    Dm6  Bm7(b5) 
Seems to won - der who I can be; 
A       A9   A      C#m7  C#m7(b5) F#7 
And I swear, no one seems  to      care 
D9       Fº               A 
About a strang - er   in town. 

Bridge 1: 

AM7     C#m7          G#7   A7    F#7 
I saw a cottage on a lonely old street, 
    C#m7      C#m7(b5)          F#7 
The weeds have grown 'round the gate; 
AM7       C#m7                G#7         A7 F#7 
Somehow I felt that you would wait here, my sweet; 
        D6       Bm7(b5)   E7 
But it looks like I'm too late. 

 A    A9    A    A9  A   Am7          A7 
Guess I'll leave on the twelve - oh - two, 
D6         D7/9+/5+)        Dm/F       Dm6   Bm7(b5) 
Can't be - lieve that there's no more you; 
           A    A9  A  A7M(9)     C#m7(b5)    F#7 
Is there noth - ing for me?  Will I al - ways be 
  D9       D6     E7 E7(13) A 
A stranger in my own home town. 

Bridge 2: 

AM7     C#m7             G#7      A7 F#7 
I asked around by no one knew you by name; 
  C#m7        C#m7(b5) F#7 
I wonder where you are now? 
AM7       C#m7                  G#7  A7       F#7 
I always hoped that things would be just the same, 
               D6     Bm7(b5)  E7 
And that you'd wait for me somehow. 

  A   A9    A    A9  A    Am7         A7 
Guess I'll leave on the twelve - oh - two 
D6       D7/9+/5+)      Dm/F       Dm6   Bm7(b5) 
Now that you have found some - one new; 
          A     A9  A  A7M(9)     C#m7(b5)   F#7 
Is there noth - ing for me?  Will I al - ways be 
   D9         D6    E7 C#m7(b5) F#7 
A strang - er in my own home    town? 

Coda: 

    D6            Bm7(b5)   AM7             F#7 
It hurts to be a - lone with no one of your own 
               D6        Bm7(b5)   E7(13)  Fº   AM7 
When you're a strang - er in your   own    home town.
