Alien
By Delirious

Verse 1:
E
I feel stranger in this land,
          C                                               C#m
Where every step the gods command,
  C
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)

Chorus 1:
            C#m   A       F#m
And I've never felt so alien.

Yes I've never felt so alien.

And I’ve never felt so alien.

Yes I’ve never felt so alien.

Verse 2:
I feel danger every day,
With every stone we throw away.
Careful it's falling.
And who will sing a different song?
I hope to God it won't be long.
Believe.

Show me a way to a higher place.
Where is there sunshine on my guilty face?
