	        G                       Am7 
I was a stranger in the city; 
 
Gmaj7   G7            Am7      D9 
Out of town were the people I knew. 
 
G                          F#7 
I had that feeling of self-pity -- 
 
        Bm           Bm7         Bm7/5-  E7 
What to do?  What to do?  What to do? 
 
     Am7            Cdim           G9 
The outlook was de - cid - ed - ly blue; 
 
G6       Bm                 Am6    Am7      E9 
But as I walked through the foggy streets alone, 
 
Fdim  Bm         Fdim     Am7      D7        G   Am7   G 
 It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known. 
 
 
Melody: 
 
D7  G   Fm6 Am7          D9     Cdim 
A foggy day     in London town 
 
G   Gmaj7 Gm7 Gm6 A7/6 A7  D9 
Had  me   low     had  me down. 
 
Gmaj7 Em6       G9     Cmaj7 Cm6 
 I  viewed the morning with  alarm; 
 
    Gmaj7        E9          A6/9      D9 
The British mu - se - um had lost its charm. 
 
D7   G      Fm6             Am7         D9 
How long, I wondered, could this thing last? 
 
Cdim     G     Gm7       Gm6  A7/6   D9 
But the age of mir - a - cles hadn't passed, 
 
    Dm7         G7   C9       A9/5- 
For sud - den - ly I saw you there -- 
 
Em  Am7/5-    G     C6     Gmaj7 
And through foggy London town 
 
    C6       Em7    A9 Am7   D7     G - Gmaj7 - D7 - G7   C7   D7 
The sun was shin - ing ev' - ry - where.
