[Intro]
B A E B

[Verse 1]
B A E B
And how have you been my darling children
B A E B
While I have been away in the west?
B A
Though you are strangers
E B
I feel that I know you
E A E A
By the way that you treat me and offer to feed me
E A B F# F#7sus4 F#
And eagerly ask if I'll stay for a rest

[Verse 2]
B A E B
And sit yourselves down in a pile here before me
B A E B
I wish I had presents for each of your smiles
B A
But I have been traveling
E B
With not much to carry
E A E A
Just a broken guitar case with tape on the sides
E A B F# F#7sus4 F#
To hold up a few signs to help me get rides

[Verse 3]
B A E B
And here is a strange European guitar string
B A E B
I found on the floor of a club in Marselles
B A E B
It's fat for the third string and skinny for the fourth string
E A E A
But I kept in hopes I might need it someday
E A B F# F#7sus4 F#
It's funny how people just keep things that way

[Verse 4]
B A E B
And here is a turtle from a Long Island Expressway
B A E B
He says that his home has been covered with tar
