Caledonia Dougie Maclean
[B]I don't know if [F#]you can see,
The [B]changes that have come [E]over me.
In these [B]last few days I've [F#]been afraid,
That I [B]might drift [E]away.
I've been [B]telling stories, [F#]singing songs,
That [B]make me think about [E]where I come from.
[B]That's the reason [F#]why I seem
So [B]far away [E]today.
(Chorus)
[B]Let me tell you that I [F#]love you,
That I [B]think about you all the [E]time.
Caledonia you're [B]calling me,
Now I'm [F#]going [B]home.
But [B]if I shall become a [F#]stranger,
Know that [B]it would make me more than [E]sad,
Caledonia's been [F#]everything I've ever [B]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)
