Verse 1
I will sing you a song,
-4 5 -5 5 5 -4
And it won’t be very long,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
‘Bout a maiden sweet,
-4 5 -5 5 -4
And she never would do wrong,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
Ev’ryone said she was pretty,
-6 -6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 -5
She was not long in the city,
6 6 6 -6 6 -5 -4 5
All alone, oh, what a pity,
-5 -5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
Poor little maid.
-5 5 5 -4

Chorus
She never saw the streets of Cairo,
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
On the Midway she had never strayed,
-5 -6 7 -8 7 -8 7 -6 6
She never saw the kutchy, kutchy,
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
Poor little country maid.
-5 -6 -5 6 -6 -5

Verse 2
She went out one night,
-4 5 -5 5 -4
Did this innocent divine,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
With a nice young man,
-4 5 -5 5 -4
Who invited her to dine,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
Now he’s sorry that he met her,
-6 -6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 -5
And he never will forget her,
6 6 6 -6 6 -5 -4 5
In the future he’ll know better,
-5 -5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
Poor little maid.
-5 5 5 -4

Chorus
She never saw the streets of Cairo,
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
On the Midway she had never strayed,
-5 -6 7 -8 7 -8 7 -6 6
She never saw the kutchy, kutchy,
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
Poor little country maid.
-5 -6 -5 6 -6 -5

Verse 3
She was engaged,
-4 5 -5 5 -4
As a picture for to pose,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
To appear each night,
-4 5 -5 5 -4
In abbreviated clothes,
-4 5 -5 -6 5 -5 -4
All the dudes were in a flurry,
-6 -6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 -5
For to catch her they did hurry,
6 6 6 -6 6 -5 -4 5
One who caught her now is sorry,
-5 -5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 5
Poor little maid.
-5 5 5 -4

Chorus
She was much fairer far than Trilby,
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4 4
Lots of more men sorry will be,
-5 -6 7 -8 7 -8 7 -6 6
If they don’t try to keep away
-6 -6 -5 6 -6 6 -5 -4
from this Poor little country maid.

-6b 7 8 -7 7 8
Well we all have a face

-6b 7 -7 -7 -7 7 8 -6b
That we hide a-way for-ev-er

-6b 7 -7 -7 -7 7 8 -7 -7
And we take them out and show our-selves

7 -7 -7 8 9 8
When ev-ry-one has gone

-6b 7 8 -7 -7 7 8
Some are sat-in some are steel

-6b 7 -7 -7 -7 7 8 -6b
Some are silk and some are leath-er

-6b 7 -7 -7 -7 7 8 -7
They’re the fac-es of a stran-ger

7 -6b -7 7 -6b -5 -6b
But we love to try them on

(CHORUS)

-6b 7 8 -7 7 8
Well, we all fall in love

-6b 7 -7 -7 -7 7 8 -6b
But we dis-re-gard the dan-ger

-6b 7 -7 -7 -7 7 8 -7
Though we share so man-y se-crets

-6b 7 -7 -7 8 9 8
There are some we nev-er tell

-6b 7 8 -7 7 8
Why were you so sur-prised

-6b 7 -7 -7 -7 7 8 -6b
That you nev-er saw the strang-er

-6b 7 -7 -7 -7 7 8 -7 -7
Did you ev-er let your lov-er see

7 -7 7 -6n -5 -6b
The stran-ger in your-self

8 8 -8 9 9 9 -10 -10
Don’t be af-raid to try a-gain

-7 -7 7 -8 -7 -7 -7 7 -8 -7
Ev-ry-one goes south ev-ry now and then

5 5 -5 6 6 6 -6 -7
You’ve done it, why can’t some-one else

-7 -7 7 -8 -7
You should know by now

-7 -7 7 -8 -7
You’ve been there your-self

VERSE 3

-6b 7 8 8 7 8
Once I used to be-lieve

-6b -7 7 7 7 -7 -8 -6b
I was such a great ro-man-cer

-6b -7 7 7 7 -7 -8 7
Then I came home to a wom-an

-6b -7 7 7 -8 -9 -8
That I could not rec-og-nize

-6b -7 -8 7 7 -7 -8 -6b
When I pressed her for a rea-son

-6b -7 7 7 7 -7 -8 -6b
She re-fused to ev-en an-swer

-6b -7 7 7 7 -7 -8 7
It was then I felt the strang-er

-7 -6b 7 -7 -6b -5 -6b
Kick me right bet-ween the eyes

(CHORUS)

(CHORUS 2nd Half)
Don’t be afraid to try again
Everyone goes south
Every now and then
You’ve done it why can’t someone else?
You should know by now
You’ve been there yourself

VERSE 5 same as 3
You may never understand
How the stranger is inspired
But he isn’t always evil
And he isn’t always wrong
Though you drown in good intentions
You will never quench the fire
You’ll give in to your desire
When the stranger comes along

ENJOY!!!
