I hurried thru 'cause I knew it was you,

D7 G7
You've been gone so long"

C F6 G7 C
She said: "Come in stranger, I know you're weary from all your miles.

C7 F C
Just sit right there in your easy chair,

F6 G7 C
and tell me all about the places you've been,

F C
how long it'll be before you leave again.

D7 G7
I hope it's a long, long while."

C C G7 C

2. She said: "Come in , stranger, Oh how I need you when you're gone.
I walk the floor and I watch the door
and when I lie awake and wonder where you can be,
I'd give anything to have you here with me.
I get so lonesome all alone."
She said: "Come in, stranger, and won't you listen to my plea.
Stay long enough, so that the one I love,
Is not a stranger to me.
