Eyes Of A Stranger - Payola$
No Stranger To Danger (1982)
A&M/Universal
1.) Verse:
C#m B6 G# min7 (Repeated)
Prominent Bass Line through Verse:
Through C# Minor: Through G# Minor:G ------------------ ------------------|D ------------------ ------------------|A ------2----4-4---- ------2-4---2-2---|E --2-4---4--------- --2-4-------------|
Instead of the bass going down to the fourth
fret on the bottom string to play the root
of the G# Minor, it stays on the second fret
of the A string and sits on the minor 3rd, B.
Prominent Guiar Line through Verse:
"Clean" guitar with atmosphere effects
C#m B6 G#m7e --4------4-4---4-4---4-4-4--4---4----(4)---if----(4)b --5------7p5---7p5---5h7p5--4---4----(4)---you---(4)G --6------6-6---6-6---4-4-4--4---4----(4)---can---(4)D --6------6-6---6-6---4-4-4--4---4----(6)---do----(6)A ----------------------------2---2----(2)---it----(6)E --------------------------------4----(4)---reach-(7)
I think I've seen Bob Rock voice the seventh fret on the
heavy E string with the fourth fret barred and the
sixth frets on the A and D depressed, but not exclusively.
2.) Chorus:
C#m G#m F# E (Repeated)
Prominent Bass Line through Verse:

Slightly driven Lead Guitar, through Bridge section
The minor on the C#m for the lead parts is just implied,
I don't bother fretting the minor thirds when doing the
driven guitars
C#m B A Be ------------------------------------------------|b ------------------------------------------------|G -----------6-6--4-2-------------4-4-------------|D -----------6-6--4-2-------------4-4-------------| X2A ------2----4-4--2-0--------2----2-2-------------|E --2-4---4--------------2-4---4------------------|
The third time this is done, Bob Rock adds a little tritone (b5) bit:
e ------------------------------------------------|b ------------------------------------------------|G -----------6-6--4-2-------------4-4-----4-------|D -----------6-6--4-2-------------4-4------3------|A ------2----4-4--2-0--------2----2-2-------2-----|E --2-4---4--------------2-4---4------------------|
The fourth time through the bridge, they don't go back up to
the B, they just go down to the A, cut it short, and then back
to the Chorus:
[End of Bridge-----] | [Start of Chorus-----------------------------|e ---------------------|----------------------------------------------|b ---------------------|----------------------------------------------|G -----------6-6--4-2--|----------6-6-----4---------------------------|D -----------6-6--4-2--|----------6-6-----4-----------4-4-----2-------|A ------2----4-4--2-0--|-----2----4-4--6--2------2----4-4-----2-------|E --2-4---4------------|-2-4---4-------------2-4---4--2-2--4--0-------|

Feel free to hammer on and pull off on those riffs, such as:
e -----------|b -----------|G -----------|D -----------|A ------2----|E --2h4---4--|
Or alternate pick them for clarity--really depends on your setup.

5.) Lyrics
Can I touch you to see if you're real?
Is it nothing this something I feel?
Can my heart take the strain?
Or will it break down again?
In your lips I sense a danger
You've got the eyes of a stranger
Have I been sleeping for all these years?
Is it magic that makes you appear?
When you walked in the room I felt my heart race
But knew I'd been fooled when I looked at your face
In your lips I sense a danger
You've got the eyes of a stranger
In your lips I see a danger
You've got the eyes of a stranger
In your lips I sense a danger
You've got the eyes of a stranger
In your lips I see a danger
You've got the eyes of a stranger
* - It seems that all the lyric engines on the internet
are reporting the second verse incorrectly. As far as I
know, what I've got here is correct.
Awesome song from an awesome band. the_boy_of_a_thousand_shirts@yahoo.com
