Wayfaring Stranger

 2   2  -3  -3   3  -3   3   -2    2
I'm just a poor way-far-ing stran-ger

2  -2   -3     3      2   -2   3   -3
a  trav-lin through this world of  woe.

 2    2    -3   -3  3    -3   3   -2   2
But there's no sickness, toil or  dan-ger

 2  -2   -3     3   -2   2   -1   2
in that bright land to which  I  go.

-3  -3 -4    5  -4   5  -4  -4 -3
I'm go-ing there to see my  fa-ther.

-3  -3 -4    5  -4   -3   3  -3
I'm go-ing there no more to roam.

-3   4  -4 -3 -2  -3 3  -2   2
I'm just a go-ing o-ver Jor-don

 2   -2 -3   3 -2    2 -1    2
I'm just a  go-ing   o-ver  home
