Total Strangers Written and recorded by Hank Thompson
G Now I was down upon my luck and the jobs were hard to find A7 D7 I was sort of short on cash and my bills were way behind G C So I went to see my life long friend an oil man now by trade G D7 G I figured it's how he’d help me out with his fortune he had made C G I said old pal I need your help I hate to be so bold A7 D7 But remember when I saved your life down at the swimming hole G C G Now I'd like to ask a favor if you can see your way D7 G I'd like to have a little loan and then I heard him say
Excuse me total stranger I can't seem to recall A7 D7 Are you absolutely certain that we've ever met at all G I'd really like to help you out as he opened wide the door C G D7 G So long total stranger that I've never seen before C G Now once I had a girlfriend who really caught my eye A7 D7 And when the wife was out of town well I'd court her on the sly G C G We'd taken all the night clubs and honky tonk around D7 G Join at all the parties and really do the town
C G But then one night my wife came home she must have smelled a rat A7 D7 She looked around from place to place and found where I was at G C Well there we were all cuddled up I knew that I was dead G A7 D7 But before my wife could say a word I jumped right up and said G C G She's just a total stranger who came in off the streets A7 D7 The place is kinda crowded so I offered her a seat G C G Now I couldn't leave this lady just a standin' on the floor D7 G She's just a total stranger that I've never seen before
C G My friend said let's go huntin' I've got the gun and shells A7 D7 The birds are really flyin' and I think we'll do quite well G C He killed a half a dozen then said I suppose G A7 D7 I really ought to tell you that the huntin' season's closed G C G About that time he heard a noise and he ducked behind a tree A7 D7 He took the gun shelled some birds and gave them all to me G C G Up stepped the old game warden and found me standing there D7 G Before I had a chance to talk I heard my friend declare
C G He's just a total stranger and I was passing by A7 D7 I saw this total stranger shoot those birds out of the sky G C G It's a shame the way some people the laws they do ignore D7 G Like this total stranger that I've never seen before
