The Rolling Stones - Stray Cat Blues: chords

D            C                  G               F
I hear the click-clack of your feet on the stairs
D           C                G    F
I know you're no scare-eyed honey
D              C                     G
There'll be a feast if you just come upstairs
A
But it's no hanging matter
                      F
It's no capital crime

D                    C         G       F
I can see that you're fifteen years old
D      C         G       F
No I don't want your I.D.
D           C               G
I can see that you're so far from home
A
But that's no hanging matter
It's no capital crime

   C
Oh yeah, you're a strange stray cat
    G
Oh yeah, don'tcha scratch like that
    D
Oh yeah, you're a strange stray cat
A
I Bet,  bet your mama don't know you scream like that
                                                   F
I bet your mother don't know you can spit like that.

D           C                G          F
You look so weird and so lost from home
D              C                G     F
But you don't really miss your mother
D               C                  G
Don't look so scared I'm not no mad-brained bear
A
But it's no hanging matter
It's no capital crime

     C
Oh, yeah
G     D
Woo!
A
I bet your mama don't know that you scatch like that
                                            F
I bet she don't know you can bite like that.
D            C                       G                   F
You say you got a girlfriend, that she's wilder than you
D           C               G      F
Why don't you bring her upstairs
D            C               G
If she's so wild then she can join in too
A
It's no hanging matter
It's no capital crime

    C
Oh yeah, you're a strange stray cat
    G
Oh yeah, don'tcha scratch like that
    D
Oh yeah, you're a strange stray cat
A
I bet you mama don't know you can bite like that
                                           F D
I'll bet she never saw you scratch my back
