[F#m] There's a [D] stranger who's living [Em] in [G] our house, and [A] she's tearing the heart [D] out of me.
For she looks so much like my [G] sweet darling, yet [A] she acts like my worst [D] enemy.
[A] [Dm] Now my [D] darling was [Am] always [G] so gentle, if [A] I could I would give her all [D] the world.
But the stranger who looks so [G] much like her, [A] behaves like the worst [D] kind of girl.
Now [A] [D]

[Bm] [A] [G] [A]

I wish that old mare in [G] our house, would [A] show that stranger what she's come [D] to be.
Then I know she'd wipe off all [G] that makeup, [A] and once again my darling I [D] would see.
Now a house doesn't have [Am] room [G] for strangers, so [A] I pray this one will [D] leave.
And then I'll be left all alone with my [G] sweet darling,
[A] and the house will become a home [D] again.
