VERSE 1: [G#] I don't know if [D#] you can see
The [Fm] changes that have come [C#] over me
In these [G#] last few days I've [D#] been afraid
That I [Fm] might drift a-[C#]-way [C#]
VERSE 2:
I've been [G#] telling stories, [D#] singing songs
That [Fm] make me think about [C#] where I come from [G#] That's the reason [D#] why I seem
So [Fm] far away to-[C#]-day [C#]
CHORUS: [G#] Let me tell you that I [D#] love you
That I [Fm] think about you all the [C#] time [C#] Caledonia you're [G#] calling me, now I'm [D#] going [G#] home
But [G#] if I shall become a [D#] stranger
Know that [Fm] it would make me more than [C#] sad [C#] Caledonia's been [D#] everything I've ever [G#] had [G#][C#][D#]
VERSE 3: [G#] I have moved and [D#] kept on moving [Fm] Proved the points that I [C#] needed proving [G#] Lost the friends that I [D#] needed losing
Found [Fm] others on the [C#] way [C#]
VERSE 4:
I've [G#] kissed the lads and [D#] left them crying [Fm] Stolen dreams, yes there's [C#] no denying
I've [G#] travelled hard sometimes with [D#] conscience flying [Fm] Somewhere in the [C#] wind [C#]
VERSE 5:
Now I'm [G#] sitting here be-[D#]-fore the fire
The [Fm] empty room, a [C#] forest choir
The [G#] flames have cooled don't [D#] get any higher
They've [Fm] withered now they've [C#] gone [C#]
VERSE 6:
But I'm [G#] steady thinking my [D#] way is clear
And [Fm] I know what I will [C#] do tomorrow
When [G#] hands have shaken, the [D#] kisses flowed
Then [Fm] I will disap-[C#]-pear [C#]
