Lyrics and Chords
[1] I wandered again to my [5] home in the [1] mountain Where in youth's early dawn I was happy and [5] free I looked for my friends but I [5] never could find [1] them I found they were all rank [5] strangers to [1] me
[1] Everybody I met (everybody I met) Seemed to [5] be a rank [1] stranger (seemed to be a rank stranger) No mother or dad (no mother or dad) Not a friend I could [5] see (not a friend could I see) They knew not my [1] name (they knew not my name) And I [5] knew not their [1] faces (and I knew not their faces) I found they were all (I found they were all) Rank [5] strangers to [1] me [4] [1]
They've all moved away said the voice of a stranger To a beautiful home by the bright crystal sea Some beautiful day I'll meet them in heaven Where no one will be a stranger to me
