A Distant Land to Roam

1
I remember very well
 
On a dark and dreary day
 
Just as I was leaving home
5 1
For a distant land to roam
 

1
Mother said (mother said) my dear boy (my dear boy)
5
I hope to see you next year again
6m 4 1
Fare ye well fare ye well
 
So I left my dear old home
5 1
For a distant land to roam
 

Though I wandered far away
From my home I go astray
But I’ll soon be coming home
Nevermore for me to roam

Well these words she said to me
As she took me by the hand
If on Earth we meet no more
We’ll meet at God’s right hand
