Tall Dark Stranger

Tall Dark Stranger
by Buck Owens
 
Chorus
E           D    A    E
Beware of a tall dark stranger
                   D  A       E
If he comes riding in to your town
       D    A   E
A tall dark stranger is danger
   A            B7             E
So don’t let no strangers hang around
 
           A           D          A
For he can capture the heart of a woman
                         D              A
With one glance from his flashing brown eyes
       F#m                             D
Like a bolt from the blue he can steal her from you
          G                  B7
Then jump up on his pony and ride  ride  ride 
 
Repeat chorus
 
           A         D             A
They say a tall dark stranger is a demon
                  D              A
And a devil rides closely by his side
        F#m                          D
With no warning he can strike like a thief in the night
          G                  B7
Then jump up on his pony and ride  ride  ride
 
Repeat chorus
