[Em] [A]
[Am] A stranger [E] came [A] in from the night, And he stood as [Em] if [A] lost in a dream.
[Am] His smile [D] was as sad as [Am] a true love [A] denied, And his voice was [E] a song [A] in the wind.
I [Am]
[A]
have traveled [Em] for many [A] a mile, [Em] And my [A] journey [Em] I cannot [D] [Am] delay.
But I must rest for a [D] while, For [Am] I'm weary [A] and cold,
And tomorrow [Em] I'll be [A] on my way.
[Em] [Am]
[Em] [A]
Give me fire to keep [G] [A] out the cold,
[Em] Close [Am] the shutters [Em] and make [A] fast the door.
[Am] Give me food for the [D] night, [Am] And a candle [A] for light,
And I will make up [Em] my bed [A] on the floor.
[Am]
[G] [A]
I have nothing to give for my keep, [D] [A] And your favors I cannot repay.
[Am]
But a gift is [D] not measured in [Am] silver and gold, [A] It's a memory [Em] that's treasured [A] each day.

[Em] [A]
stranger arose with the dawn, And he shorted [Em] his trebling [A] load.
[Am] Without making [D] a sound, he [Am] took one look around, [A] And the stranger [Em] he took [A] to the road.
[Em] [Am]
[B] [G] [Am]
[A] When the cold wind [Em] howls [A] in the night, [Am]
And the rain [Em] beats [B] hard on the [Am] door,
A voice in the [D] wind seems [Am] to echo again, And the stranger [Em] is trebling [Am] once more.
