D I left my old home, to ramble this country G D My mother and dad, said son don't go wrong. G D Remember that God, will always watch over you. A D And we will be waiting, for you here at home.
(Chorus) G D Son don't go astray, was what they both told me. A D Remember that love, for God can be found. G D But now they're both gone, this letter just told me. A D For years they've been dead, the fields have turned brown.
For many long years, I've travelled in sorrow. No thought of the day, when I would return. Now as I go home, and find no one waiting, the price I have paid, to live and to learn.
