Caledonia

Chords

Low-G Tuning

C               G
I don't know if you can see,
    Am                     F 
The changes that have come over me.
         C                  G  
In these last few days I've been afraid,
       Am          F 
That I might drift away.
          C                G   
I've been telling stories, singing songs,
     Am                  F              
That make me think about where I come from.
C                 G
That's the reason why I seem
   Am       F
So far away today.

(Chorus)
C                      G
Let me tell you that I love you,
       Am                      F 
That I think about you all the time.
                 C
Caledonia you're calling me,
        G     C
Now I'm going home.
    C                   G
But if I shall become a stranger,
          Am                         F  
Know that it would make me more than sad,
                 G                    C 
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had.


Now I have moved and kept on moving,
Proved the points that I needed proving,
Lost the friends that I needed losing, 
Found others on the way.
I have kissed the lads and left them crying,
Stolen dreams, yes there's no denying,
I have travelled hard sometimes with conscience
flying,
Somewhere in the wind.

(Chorus)

Now I'm sitting here before the fire,
The empty room, a forest choir,
The flames have cooled. don't get any higher,
They've withered now they've gone.
But I'm steady thinking my way is clear,
And I know what I will do tomorrow,
When hands have shaken, the kisses flowed,
Then I will disappear.

(Chorus)
