Intro:
G -- C
G -- C
Am - C - G - C
G -- C


G                         C
Never fall in love with a stranger
    G                           C
And that, son, they all said to me
    Am            C    G      C
And never fall in love with a stranger
            G                                 C
But I can?t help it if she falls in love with me


    G                         C
And never fall in love with a stranger
G                                  C
Now, there I've gone against my command
    Am            C    G      C
And never fall in love with a stranger
    G                     C
The pain is written in my hands


       F   Am      G
But if I   can?t resist
        F   Am    G
Find my way outta this


    Am                          F         C
She knows that I love more than any river flows
        Am                    F              C
And I?m done now, all of my intentions are exposed
    F      Am    G
Not hidden in my clothes
   F    Am       G
Or in between my toes


        G                        C
I wanna tombstone pearl handle revolver
                   G                           C
Don?t wanna meet a pale man with a halo in his hair
Am            C    G      C
Never fall in love with a stranger
    G                         C
But sometimes I simply do not care


       F   Am      G
But if I   can?t resist
       F   Am    G
Get my way outta this


    Am                          F         C
She knows that I love more than any river flows
        Am                    F              C
And I?m done now, all of my intentions are exposed
    F      Am    G
Not hidden in my clothes
   F    Am       G
Or in between my toes


Break:
Am  --   F - C

F - Am - G


              G                         C
I done things right, pretty much all of my life
        G                    C
I?m not looking for any sympathy
      Am        C     G             C
I can run all I like away from that stranger
    G                            C
But somehow she?ll always follow me
