The Stranger (CHORDS) by Bobby Bare
[Intro]~
C F C
From the west there came a stranger I'll tell his story now
C D G
And the reason they called him stranger is because he loved a cow
C F C
Yeah you might think that lovin' a cow is somethin' sorta strange
F C A7 D7 G C
But oh my friend did you ever spend six months on the range
[Verse]~
G C
Well the days get long and the nights get cold
G C
And a feller gets lonely and a feller grows old
F C Am
And a feller starts to wonderin' if he'll ever find a pretty little golden-haired bluey-eyed girl somehow
D G C
And a feller goes out and fucks a cow
[Chorus]~
G C
A-lee-da-lo-da-lay-hee,.. yuh-hoo-hoo
G C
A-lee-da-lo-da-lay-hee,.. yuh-hoo-hoo (get along little doggie)
F C Am
A-yee-ho-da-lay-hee,.. woo-hoo-doo-de-ho,.. lay-hoo
G C
It's your misfortune not my own
G C
Ah come here you little old brown-eyed darlin' you,.. I love you
G C
Yo-da-lee-da-lay-hee,.. yuh-hoo-hoo-hoo,.. woo-woo-woo,.. wow wow
F C
I don't ever fool around with no ham and cheese
