Life of a Voyageur or The Voyageur's Song by Mary Swanson
Am The life of a voyageur G that of a sojourner F travels around and round
E7 (E7: 020100)
but not from town to town
Am travels the lakes and streams G follows his distant dreams F peace on the waterways Am Am7 Am Am7 Am blue skies and cloudy days
[Chorus]
Am My heart has but one home G from which I'll never roam F land of true happiness E7 Am Canadian wilderness Am The call of the lonely loon G coyotes howling at the moon F wind rustling through the trees
E7 (E7: 020100)
that's a Canadian breeze
Am smoke rising from the fire G up through the trees who’s stately spires F reach to the sky in the evening glow Am Am7 Am Am7 Am sun goes down, no northwinds blow
[Chorus]
Am Mist rising from the falls G distant hooting of the owls F fire crackling through the night
E7 (A7: 020100)
bird's cry at dawn's first light
Am fall when leaves come tumbling down G winter's blanket covers ground F zephyrs blowing through the pines Am Am7 Am Am7 Am voyageur's heritage, this is mine
[Chorus]
Am The life of a voyageur G that of a sojourner F clear as the mountain stream
E7 (E7: 020100)
key to my distant dream
Am some day I'll find it there G place where I'll lose all care F owls hoot and loons cry free Am Am7 Am Am7 Am there I'll find my liberty
[Chorus]
