[Intro]
Dadd9 A/D Dadd9 A/D
[Verse 1]
Dadd9 A/D Alone as I sit and watch the trees Dadd9 A/D Won't you tell me if I scream, will they bend down and listen to me? Bm7 A And it makes me wonder... if I know the words, will you come? G Or will you laugh at me? Dadd9 A/D Dadd9 A/D Or will I run?
[Verse 2]
Dadd9 A/D Little boy says to me, "Where you goin' now son?" Dadd9 A/D I said, "I don't know where I'm goin', boy, I only know where I'm from" Bm7 A And it makes me wonder... if the stars shine when my eyes close G Or does my brother's heart cry? D I don't know
[Chorus]
G D I'm a stranger in my home G D Now that everybody's gone G Bm7 Someone please talk to me 'cause I feel you cry A F#m7 And you're sitting with him G Dadd9 A/D Dadd9 A/D And I know I'll never see you again
[Verse 3]
Dadd9 A/D Lying down in Charleston under the Carolina sky Dadd9 A/D You see I'm tired of feeling this pain; I'm tired of living my own little lie Bm7 A And it makes me wonder... when I see you in my dreams G Does it mean anything? D Are you trying to talk to me?
[Chorus]
G D I'm a stranger in my home G D Tell me, are you feeling alone? G Bm7 Someone tell me what to do 'cause I'm feeling strong A And I wonder how you feel G Do you realize my pain is for real?
[Bridge]
Em Bm7 I see you in my dreams A Bm7 And I wonder if you're looking down at me and smiling right now G I wanna know if it's true Bm7 When he looks at me, won't you tell me A N.C. Does he realize he came down here and he took you too soon?
[Guitar Solo]
D Bm A Bm D A
[Verse 4]
Dadd9 A/D And now my days are short and my nights are long Dadd9 A/D I lay down with memories of you that keep me going on, going on Bm7 A And it makes me wonder... as I sit and stare G Will I see your face again? D Tell me, do you care?
[Chorus]
G D I'm a stranger in my home G D Living life on my own G Bm7 Right now I just can't see 'cause I'm feeling weak A F#m And my soul begins to bleed G Dadd9 And no one's listening to me, not even the trees
[Outro]
