Caledonia lyrics and chords

	I[G] don't know if[D] you can see The [G]changes that have come [C]over me In these[G] last few days I've[D] been afraid That [G]I might drift a[C]way I've been[G] telling old stories, [D]singing songs That[G] make me think about[C] where I've come from [G]That's the reason[D] why I seem So[G] far away to[C]day [G]Let me tell you [C]that I love you That I[G] think about you[C] all the time Cale[G]donia, you're calling me, now I'm going home But if I should become a[C] stranger Know that[G] it would make me[C] more than sad Cale[G]donia's been everything I've[C] ever[G] had     Now I have moved and I've kept on moving Proved the points that I needed proving Lost the friends that I needed losing Found others on the way I have kissed the fellas and left them crying Stolen dreams, yes, there's no denying I have traveled hard, sometimes with conscience flying Somewhere with the wind   Now I'm sitting here before the fire The empty room, the forest choir The flames have cooled, don't get any higher They've withered, now they've gone But I'm steady thinking, my way is clear And I know what I will do tomorrow When hands have shaken, the kisses float Then I will disappear   Caledonia's been everything I've ever had Caledonia's been everything I've ever had Caledonia's been everything I've ever had   The youtube video is by Dougie MacLean who is also the man who wrote the song. He wrote it while doing a spot of busking in Brittany with a couple of Irish fellas. If your a guitar player and want to play it like Dougie does, well he places capo on the 4th fret and plays open C Tuning  (CGCGCE) Copyright 1982 Plant Life Music Ltd CALEDONIA 3/4 (Celtic Thunder) (Capo on 3rd fret)  (D)I don’t know if (A)you can see, The (D)changes (Hm7)that have come (G)over me(D)In these last few days, I’ve (A)been afraid, That (D)I might (Hm7)drift (G)away(D)I’ve been tellin’ stories, (A)singing songs, That (D)made me (Hm7)think, about (G)where I’ve come from   (D)And that’s the reason (A)why I seem (D)so far (Hm7)away (G)today.  Chorus: (D)Let me tell you that I (A)love youAnd I (D)think about you (Hm7)all the (G)timeCaledonia you’re (D)calling me, now I’m (A)goin’ (D)homeBut if I should become a (A)strangerKnow that (D)it would make me (Hm7)more than (G)sadCaledonia’s been (A)everything I’ve ever (D)had.    I have moved, and I’ve kept on movin’, Proved the points that I needed provin’I Lost the friends that I needed losin’, Found others on the wayI’ve kissed the girls and left them crying, Stolen dreams, yes there’s no denyingI‘ve traveled hard sometimes with conscienceFlyin’, somewhere in the wind  Chorus  Chorus in C twice:  (C)Let me tell you that I (G)love youAnd I (C)think about you (Am7)all the (F)timeCaledonia you’re (C)calling me, now I’m (G)goin’ (C)homeBut if I should become a (G)strangerKnow that (C)it would make me (Am7)more than (F)sadCaledonia’s been (G)everything I’ve ever (C)had.  For easier Version play D instead of Hm7 and C instead of Am7
