Deep Purple - Strangeways: chords

       Gm
I was born into confusion
My mother said to me
When you become a man you'll understand
                  Am
But it's still a mystery

           Gm
And if you want to get ahead
Get some decent clothes
The only way to make it
                          Am
Dress the part that gets right up my nose

Chorus:
        A#
And I think to myself in this river of doubt
Dm
This is something I can do without
    F           Gm
But, strange ways is what I got
Strange ways

The Indians are coming
I saw it on TV
They're twenty thousand strong
But they always get depleted by the cavalry

Salvation is at hand
It's guaranteed
Just send a donation straight to God
One eight hundred, toll free

Chorus:
And I think to myself in this academy of fear
Where am I going, what am I doing here?
But strange ways is all I got
Strange ways

Have you seen the headlines?
Princess engaged
Three million out of work
But that's on the second page

The alien has landed
Finger in his ear
Can't hear a word I am saying
But that isn't such a bad idea

Chorus:
And I think to myself in this cradle of lust
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
But strange ways is all you get
Strange ways
