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
