# I play this song in standard tuning in the original key, but you can either play it # half a step down or tune up the uke half a step in order to have simplier chords

Intro:

G#    C#maj7   x2

Verse 1:

G#                    C#maj7
I lit my purest candle close to my

G#                    C#maj7
window hoping it would catch the eye

G#                 C#maj7
of any vagabond who passed it by

A#m                C#       G#
and I waited in my fleeting house.


Verse 2:

G#                       C#maj7
Before he came I felt him drawing near,

G#                     C#maj7
as he neared I felt the ancient fear

G#                          C#maj7
that he had come to wound my door and jeer

A#m                C#       G#
and I waited in my fleeting house.


Chorus 1:

D#                 C#     Fm
Tell me stories, I called to the hobo,

D#                 C#     Fm
stories of cold, I smiled at the hobo,

D#                C#    Fm
stories of old, I knelt to the hobo,

A#m                          C#       G#
and he stood before me in my fleeting house.


Verse 3:

G#                        C#maj7
No, said the hobo, no more tales of time,

G#                        C#maj7
don't ask me now to wash away the grime,

G#                            C#maj7
I can't come in 'cause it's too high a climb,

A#m                        C#       G#
and he walked away from my fleeting house.


Chorus 2:

D#                    C#       Fm     C#maj7
Then you be damned, I screamed to the hobo,

D#                C#   Fm     C#maj7
leave me alone, I wept to the hobo,

D#                 C#    Fm     C#maj7
turn into stone, I knelt to the hobo,

A#m                        C#       G#
and he walked away from my fleeting house.


Ending:

D#       C#   Fm    C#maj7
