D
I remember very well
On one dark and dreary day
Just as I was leaving home
A D
For a distant land to roam
D
Mother said (mother said)
My dear boy (my dear boy)
A
I hope to see you next year again
D
Fare you well (fare you well)
Fare you well (fare you well)
So I left my dear old home
A D
For a distant land to roam
D
Now I've wandered far away
From my home I've gone astray
Now I'm coming, coming home
A D
Never more from thee to roam
D
Mother said (mother said)
My dear boy (my dear boy)
A
I hope to see you next year again
D
Fare you well (fare you well)
Fare you well (fare you well)
So I left my dear old home
A D
For a distant land to roam
D
And these words she said to me
As she took me by the hand
If on earth we meet no more
A D
May we meet at God's right hand
D
Mother said (mother said)
My dear boy (my dear boy)
A
I hope to see you next year again
D
Fare you well (fare you well)
Fare you well (fare you well)
So I left my dear old home
A D
For a distant land to roam
