The first strange town I was ever in
G7
C
The county was hanging a man
F
C
Nobody cared if he lived or died
G7
C
And I just didn’t understand
F
C
So I washed my face in the morning dew
F
C
Bathed my soul in the sun
F
C
Am
Washed my face in the morning dew
C
G7
C
And kept on moving along
F
C
The second strange town that I was in
G7
C
They were laughing at a poor crippled man
F
C
Begging for nickels and dimes on the street
G7
C
I just didn’t understand
F
C
The third strange town that I was in
G7
C
Was settled peaceful and nice
F
C
The rich got richer the poor got poorer
G7
C
And to me it didn’t seem right
F
C
So I washed my face in the morning dew
F
C
Bathed my soul in the sun
F
C
Am
Washed my face in the morning dew
C
G7
C
And kept on moving along
F
C
Well some times are bound to change
G7
C
A change can’t be very far
F
C
And each injustice I have seen
G7
C
Shall come before the bar
F
C
So I washed my face in the morning dew
F
C
Bathed my soul in the sun
F
C
Am
Washed my face in the morning dew
C
G7
C
And my journey will be done
G7
C
And my journey will be done
G7
C
Am
