No One To Welcome Me Home

[3/4 time]


G                               C            G
I went to the old home  where I once used to roam

                           A7       D7
And all of my friends  had everyone gone

    G                     C           G
How sad and how drear  no voice did I hear

                        D7         G
There was no o--ne  to welcome me home




No o--ne to welcome me home

                  A7         D7
Oh no  no one  to welcome me home

    G                     C             G
How sad and how drear  no voice could I hear

                     D7         G
There was no one  to welcome me home



                                  C             G
I went to the old school  where I once loved to play

                             A7        D7
And all of my play-mates had every one gone

   G                      C           G
So lonesome and drear  no voice did I hear

                       D7         G
There was no o--ne  to welcome me home




No o--ne  to welcome me home

                    A7         D7
There was o--ne  to welcome me home

    G                     C          G
But when I be--hold  that mansion of Gold

                          D7         G
There'll be Some--one  to welcome me home
