Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

When you're tired and you're far, far, far, from home

When you're lost and you're on your own

When the fog comes a swirling, swirling 'round you

Mmm, 'til you can't see the path before you

You should know of the strangest thing

You come down like the silent, silent snow

'Til your mind feels as numb as your fingers

It was many, many, many, many years ago

On the coast of Gondwanaland

 No one heard for the howling, howling wind

 No one heard when they whispered the strangest thing

 No one saw for the stinging, stinging rain

No one saw...

 ...The strangest thing

Saw you slip on the icy, icy street

And I smiled accidentally

And you swore at the ice and you swore at me

And my heart melted instantly

In the warmth of the strangest thing

So I'm holding a torch up high for you

And the batteries are all brand new

 But I'm scared they'll wear right through

 Before you see me shining for you

 Before I can discover who

 Can show me...

 ...the strangest thing

 No one heard for the howling, howling wind

 No one heard when they whispered the strangest thing

 No one saw for the stinging, stinging rain

No one saw...

 ...The strangest thing
