Chords

[Intro] A Bm A G A [Verse 1]
   D
Outside the dogs are barking

                                            A
And the morning sun is breaking through the trees

G
My heart is feeling heavy

     Bm            D              A
As I listen to the moaning of the breeze

G               A                      D
Nukkanya, baby, I really don't want to leave
[Verse 2]
D
There's a ticket in my pocket

                                 A
But I'd toss it if I only had my way

G                     D
And a suitcase in the hallway

Bm               D               A
I wish I could unpack it now and stay

G               A                      D
Nukkanya, baby, I'm gonna be back some day
[Chorus]
Bm       A  G
Nukkanya-ah-ah

               D                     A
Don't it go to show what a man don't know

Bm       A  G
Nukkanya-ah-ah

                A                      D
Nukkanya, baby, I really don't want to go
[Verse 3]
D
My land was once a river

                                 A
I hate to see it slowly bleeding dry

G                  D
My love is like an eagle

Bm              D               A
High across the desert she will fly

G               A                   D
Nukkanya, baby, I'll see you by and by
[Chorus]
Bm       A  G
Nukkanya-ah-ah

               D                     A

Bm       A  G
Nukkanya-ah-ah

                A                      D
Nukkanya, baby, I really don't want to go
