[D] I don't know if you can [A] see,
The [Bm] changes that have come [G] over me.
In these [D] last few days I've [A] been afraid,
That I [Bm] might drift a-[G]way.
I've been [D] telling old stories, [A] singing songs,
That [Bm] make me think about [G] where I came from.
[D] That's the reason [A] why I seem
So [Bm] far away to-[G]day.
{c: }
[D] Oh let me tell you that I [A] love you,
That I [Bm] think about you all the [G] time.
Caledonia you're [D] calling me,
Now I'm [A] going [D] home.
But [D] if I should become a [A] stranger,
Know that [Bm] it would make me more than [G] sad,
Caledonia's been [A] everything I've ever [D] had.
{c: }
[D] Now I have moved and [A] kept on moving,
[Bm] Proved the points [G] that I needed proving,
[D] Lost the friends [A] that I needed losing,
[Bm] Found others on [G] the way.
[D] I have tried [A] and kept on trying,
[Bm] Stolen dreams, yes there's [G] no denying,
[D] I have travelled hard sometimes [A] with conscience flying,
[Bm] Somewhere with [G] the wind.
{c: }
[D] Oh let me tell you that I [A] love you,
That I [Bm] think about you all the [G] time.
Caledonia you're [D] calling me,
Now I'm [A] going [D] home.
But [D] if I should become a [A] stranger,
Know that [Bm] it would make me more than [G] sad,
Caledonia's been [A] everything I've ever [D] had.
{c: }
Now I'm [D] sitting here be-[A]fore the fire,
[Bm] The empty room, a [G] forest choir,
The [D] flames that couldn't [A] get any higher,
They've [Bm] withered now [G] they've gone.
[A] But I'm [D] steady thinking [A] my way is clear,
[Bm] And I know what I will [G] do tomorrow,
[D] When hands have shaken, [A] and kisses flown,
[D] Then I will [G] disappear.
{c: }
[D] Oh let me tell you that I [A] love you,
That I [Bm] think about you all the [G] time.
Caledonia you're [D] calling me,
Now I'm [A] going [D] home.
But [D] if I should become a [A] stranger,
Know that [Bm] it would make me more than [G] sad,
Caledonia's been [A] everything I've ever [D] had.
