Hoar, oh Johnny, won't you come home soon?
The winter is coming and I'm all alone.
A candle is burning in my window-lock,
And the wild beasts, they are going home.
A young man's love is something to behold,
First it burns and then it soon turns [Am] cold.
He'll whisper in the moonlight and your hand he'll hold,
Then you'll vanish with the morning dew.
And it's, Hoar, oh Johnny, won't you come [G] home soon?
The winter is coming and I'm all [Am] alone.
A candle is burning in my window [G]-lock,
And the wild beasts, they are [Dm] going home.
[Am] He'll court you by a meadow in the [G] summertime,
When first you love it is the [Am] sweetest time.
He'll promise a golden ring and then [G] one day,
He will vanish with the morning [D] dew.
[Am] Hoar, oh Johnny, won't you come [G] home soon?
The winter is coming and I'm all [Am] alone.
A candle is burning in my [G] window-lock,
And the wild beasts, they are [D] going home.

[Am] You'll be waiting for us footsteps in the [G] lonely room
Listen by the window, he'll be coming [Am] soon
Your heart it will be breaking by the [G] early dawn
For he'll vanish with the [D] morning dew
[Am] Hoar, oh Johnny, won't you come [G] home soon?
The winter is coming and I'm [Am] all alone
A candle is burning in my [G] window long
And the wild geese, they [D] are going home
[Am] So come all you young men who are in [G] your prime
The young maiden's love is like the rarest [Am] wine
The forest you taste, it is the [G] golden time
Sweeter than the morning [D] dew
