Tom: G
G D7
I tried to wait for you to shake Toronto town,
G
You couldn't so you let me go, and turned me down.
D7
You tried to change my Newfie ways, I understand,
G
Wrong or right, I'm home tonight, I'm back in Newfoundland.
[Verse 2]
G D7
Down by the sea where life is free, I'm home again.
G
Where I sail the blue and think of you, and what might have been.
D7
And if someday you can find a way to change your plan,
G
You'll find me here where there's no tears, back home in Newfoundland.
[Verse 3]
G D7
My life goes on without your warm and smiling face.
G
Though every care has been to share one more embrace.
D7
And as I write from home tonight, please understand,
G
You can always know I loved you, though my heart's in Newfoundland.
[Verse 4]
G D7
Where folks are real and people feel so deep inside,
G
And the sea just rolls right through the soul of Newfie pride.
D7
And if memories fold, someday I'll hold another's hand,
G
But I'll roam no more from heaven's shore. My home's in Newfoundland.
D7 G
No, I'll roam no more from heaven's Shore. My home's in Newfoundland.
