Alien
By Delirious
Verse 1:

I feel stranger in this land,

Where every step the gods command,

I breathe
E
And children wander fatherless,
C C#m – E
Though fields that spent their happiness.
C F
I grieve,
Pre-chorus 1:
A – C#m F#m
Take them away to a higher place.
A – C#m/G F#m
Give me a day 'cos I'm losing (face)
