Stray Cat Blues The Rolling Stones
A chord to start
D C G G,F,D
I hear the click-clack of your feet on the stairs,
D C G G,F,D
I know you're no scare-eyed honey.
[D]There'll be a [C]feast if you just [G]come upstairs, but
[A]Its no hanging matter,
[A]It's no capital crime.
D C G G,F,D
Yes I can see that you're 15 years old.
D C G G,F,D
No I don't want your i.d.
[D]Yes I can [C]see that you're so [G]far from home, but
[A]Its no hanging matter,
[A]Its no capital crime.
Chorus
[A]Oh [C]yeah, you're a strange stray cat
[C]Oh [G]yeah, don'tcha scratch like that
[G]Oh [D]yeah, you're a strange stray cat, I bet
[A]Bet your mama don't know ya scream like that
[A]I bet your mother don't know that you spit like that.
D C G G,F,D
You look so weird and you're so, so far from home
D C G G,F,D
But you really miss your mother
[D]Don't look so [C]scared I'm not no [G]mad-brained bear, but
[A]But its no hanging matter
A C INTO BREAK
It's no capital crime, oh yeah....
Break: G,D,A
[A]I bet your mama don't know that you scratch like that
[A]I bet your mother don't know you bite like that.
D C G G,F,D
You say you got a friend, and she's wilder than you
D C G G,F,D
Why don't you bring her upstairs
[D]If she's so [C]wild then she can [G]join in too
[A]Its no hanging matter
[A]It's no capital crime
[A]Oh [C]yeah, you're a strange stray cat
[C]Oh [G]yeah, don'tcha scratch like that
[G]Oh [D]yeah, you're a strange stray cat
[A]I bet your mama don't know you can bite like that
[A]I bet she never saw ya scratch my back
Lead break & fade all in A
