Dolores Keane, Caledonia (1992)
Key: :[Db] (w: Dougie McLean)

INTRO: [Db] [Ebm] [Fm] [Gb] : [x2]

VERSE 1:
[Db] I don't know if [Ab] you can see
The [Bbm] changes that have come [Gb] over me
In these [Db] last few days I've [Ab] been afraid
That I [Bbm] might drift a-[Gb]-way [Gb]

VERSE 2:
I've been [Db] telling stories, [Ab] singing songs
That [Bbm] make me think about [Gb] where I come from
[Db] That's the reason [Ab] why I seem
So [Bbm] far away to-[Gb]-day [Gb]

CHORUS:
[Db] Let me tell you that I [Ab] love you
That I [Bbm] think about you all the [Gb] time
[Gb] Caledonia you're [Db] calling me, now I'm [Ab] going [Db] home
But [Db] if I shall become a [Ab] stranger
Know that [Bbm] it would make me more than [Gb] sad
[Gb] Caledonia's been [Ab] everything I've ever [Db] had [Db] [Gb] [Ab]

VERSE 3:
[Db] I have moved and [Ab] kept on moving
[Bbm] Proved the points that I [Gb] needed proving
[Db] Lost the friends that I [Ab] needed losing
Found [Bbm] others on the [Gb] way [Gb]

VERSE 4:
I've [Db] kissed the lads and [Ab] left them crying
[Bbm] Stolen dreams, yes there's [Gb] no denying
I've [Db] travelled hard sometimes with [Ab] conscience flying
[Bbm] Somewhere in the [Gb] wind [Gb]

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 5:
Now I'm [Db] sitting here be-[Ab]-fore the fire
The [Bbm] empty room, a [Gb] forest choir
The [Db] flames have cooled don't [Ab] get any higher
They've [Bbm] withered now they've [Gb] gone [Gb]

VERSE 6:
But I'm [Db] steady thinking my [Ab] way is clear
And [Bbm] I know what I will [Gb] do tomorrow
When [Db] hands have shaken, the [Ab] kisses flowed
Then [Bbm] I will disap-[Gb]-pear [Gb]

REPEAT CHORUS:
