Stranger In The House Uke tab by Elvis Costello

[Intro]
G-C D G-C G-D

G          C       G      C
This never was one of the great romances
      D                                            G   C Eb
But I thought you'd always have those young girl's eyes
    G        C
But now they look in tired and bitter glances
       G                  D                     G    Db Ab Eb
At the ghost of a man who walks 'round in my disguise
  G       C                       Db  C
I get the feeling that I don't belong here
             Eb        
But there's no welcome in the window anyway

And I look down for a number on my key chain

Cause it feels more like a hotel everyday

There's a stranger in the house; nobody's seen his face

But everybody says he's taken my place

There's a stranger in the house no one will ever see

But everybody says he looks like me

And now you say you've got no expectations

But I know you also miss those carefree days

And for all the angry words that passed between us

You still don't understand me when I say

There's a stranger in the house; nobody's seen his face

But everybody says he's taken my place

There's a stranger in the house no one will ever see

But everybody says he looks like me
