1. Out in the cold world and far away form home
D
somebody's boy is wandering alone,
G C G
no one to guide him and keep his footsteps right,
G D G
somebody's boy is homeless tonight.
G C G
Bring back my boy, my wandering boy,
D
far, far away, wherever he may be.
G C G
Tell him, his mother, with faded cheeks and hair,
G D7 G
at their old home is waiting him there. + instrumental = verse 2
G C G
2. Out in the hallway there stands a vacant chair,
D
yonder's the shoes my darling used to wear.
G C G
Empty the cradle, the one that's loved so well,
G D G
how I miss him, there's no tongue can tell.
+ CHORUS + instrumental = verse 2
G C G
3. Oh, could I see him and fold him to my breast,
D
gladly I'd close my eyes and be at rest.
G C G
There is no other that's left to give me joy,
G D G
bring back my boy, my wandering boy. + CHORUS
