G
Why do you pour the cream and sugar in my coffee
D G
About these cigarettes I don’t believe they’re mine
G7 C
that I’ll be standing in the shadow of a stranger
G D G
more and more I see these scatters tell tale signs
[Verse 2]
G
There were teardrops on your pillow again this morning woman
D G
but your problem girl is someone on your mind
G7 C
I’m afraid to come home early without warning
G D G
more and more I see these scatters tell tale signs
[Chorus]
C G
Someone else beside myself knows the direction
D7 G
to the sweetest thing that once was mine alone
C G
somebody else holds the key to my possession
A D
Lord I lost the only treasure I’ve ever known
[Verse 3]
G
The telephone is ringing, I’ll get it darling
D G
but I know there’ll be no answer on the line
G7 C
just the presence of a silent total stranger
G D G
cos’ more and more I see these scatters tell tale signs
C G D G
yes more and more I see these scatters tell tale signs
