[Verse 1]
G# C#
Until that day
A#m
My life had been a river following
D# A#m
A# safe, predestinated course
D# A#m
Suddenly detouring so unexpectedly
D# G#
With uncompromising force
C# Fm
My strongholds broke down all too easily
C# A#m
I remember well
C7 Fm
How it did embarrass me
A#m Fm
I hung on to his every smile
A#m D# D#sus4 D#
Marveled at his style
[Chorus]
G#sus4 G#
Just like that
Cm
He walked into my house
C# C#/A#
As smug as a cat
A#m D#
He was handsome and smart
D#sus4 G#
Walked away with my heart
G#sus4 G#
Just like that
Cm C#
He found a temporary home
C#/A#
In my flat
A#m
Telling innocent lies
D# G#
Throwing dust in my eyes
G#sus4 G# C#
But I led him on
C7 Fm C# D#
Knowing that someday soon he'd be gone
G#sus4 G#
Just like that
Cm C# C#/A#
As though he only stopped a while for a chat
A#m D#
But my secrets he learned
G#
Leaving no stone unturned

[Verse 2]
G# C#
And once again
A#m
The river's flowing slowly
D# A#m
Following its safe and uneventful course
D#
Now the tears have dried
A#m
It's become a pleasant break
D# G#
I recall without remorse
C#
But now and then
Fm
I wonder where he is
C# C7
And I will admit
Fm
He had something that I miss
A#m Fm
I guess he was a rolling stone
A#m D# D#sus4 D#
The only one I've known
[Chorus]
G#sus4 G#
Just like that

He walked into my house
