Sit Down Young Stranger chords by 
The Country Gentlemen 
N/A•
Key: A major•BPM: 105
Verse 1
G
I'm standing in the doorway,
C
G
my head bowed in my hands,
C
G
not knowing where to sit,
D
not knowing where I stand.
G
My father looms above me,
C
G
for him there is no rest.
C
G
My mother's arms enfold me
D
and hold me to her breast.
G
They say you've been out wandering,
C
they say you've traveled far
G
C
G
Sit down, young stranger,
and tell us who you are
The room is all gone misty,
C
G
my thoughts are all in spin
C
G
Sit down, young stranger,
D
and tell us where you've been
G
Well, I've been out to the mountain,
C
G
I've been down by the sea
C
G
I never questioned no one,
D
and no one questioned me.
G
My love was given freely,
C
and of t times was returned.
G
C
G
I never came to borrow,
D
I only came to learn.
G
Sometimes it did get lonely,
C
G
but it taught me how to cry.
C
G
And laughter came too easy
D
for life to pass me by.
G
But I never had a dollar
C
G
that I didn't earn with pride
C
G
Cause I had a million daydreams
D
G
C
G
C
G
D
G
to keep me satisfied
A
And will you gather daydreams
D
or will you gather wealth?
A
D
A
How can you find your fortune
E
when you cannot find yourself?
A
My mother's eyes grew misty,
D
A
there's a trembling in her hand
D
A
Sit down, young stranger,
E
I do not understand
A
And will you try to tell us
D
A
that you've been too long at school
D
A
That knowledge is not needed,
E
that power does not rule
A
That war is not the answer,
D
A
that young men should not die.
D
A
Sit down, young stranger,
E
I wait for your reply.
A
The answer is not easy,
D
for souls are not reborn.
A
D
A
To wear the crown of peace,
E
you must wear the crown of thorn.
A
If Jesus had a reason,
D
A
I'm sure he would not tell
D
A
They treated him so badly,
E
how could he wish them well?
A
The parlor now is empty,
D
there's nothing left to say
A
D
A
My father has departed,
E
my mother's gone to pray
A
There's rockets in the meadow
D
and ships out on the sea
A
D
A
The an swer's in the forest,
E
carved upon a tree
D
A
John loves Mary,
E
A
does anyone love me?

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”
Got me back into playing
Tuliketsune
“I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad
“Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!”
Very reliable tuner

This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”
