Em                 Am            Em
People are strange when you're a stranger
Am         Em    B7          Em
Faces look ugly when you're alone
                   Am           Em
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
   Am         Em         B7               Em
Streets are uneven          when you're down
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
               B7
When you're strange
 G                         B7
Faces come out of the rain
 
When you're strange
G                           B7
No one remembers your name
B7
When you're strange
B7
When you're strange
B7
When you're strange

Faces look ugly when you're alone

Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
   Am         Em         B7               Em
Streets are uneven          when you're down

Well, this may be the "Official" tab but I kinda like Pencom's v.5 better with only B7 chords instead of B. It has more tension throughout the whole song.

The lyric is “Streets are UP even when you’re down”. Watch him live and this is what he says. Everybody gets this wrong. “Uneven” makes no sense lyrically. Check out the are Sullivan video.
