[Intro]
G D G C G Em D D
[Verse 1]
G D G C Late spring the leaves have turned green G Em D D And there's sheep on the hill side, there's birds on the wing. G D C G Over my shoulder the last time I'm seeing, D C G D The old home all weathered and grey
[Verse 2]
G D G C We talked till three, my father and me, G Em D D And the fiddle tunes flowed like the clear Marga-ree, G D C G "Never for-get who you are,son", said he. D C G G As I followed my brothers away.
[Chorus]
Em Em Em Em And I'm heading for Halifax to see what's to spare, D D D D In the way of some work and if there's nothing there, Em Em Em Em It's Toronto, out west, to God only knows where, C G D D But there's bound to be friends from back home.
[Verse 3]
G D G C One thing I know, wherever I go, G Em D D My heart's in Cape Breton it will always be so. G D C G When-ever the fiddler rosins the bow, D C G G My first and last thoughts are of home.
