Song For Newfoundland
Tono: Original
[Chorus]
She's a rocky isle in the ocean
And she's pounded by wind from the sea
You might think that she's rugged and cold
But she's home sweet home to me.
[Verse]
G Bm C G
She's bordered by inlets, tickles and sounds
Em C D
Reaches by coves and by bays
Em D C G
She soothes your vision and you sail round her shores
D G
With a mixture of greens, browns and grays.
D C
And the houses lie scattered among the rocks in the cove
Em D C
Trimmed with orange, green, yellow and blue
G D C
In twillingate, Fogo and Little Hearts' Ease
G D G
Fortune, Trout River, Fermeuse.
[Chorus]
G D G
She's a rocky isle in the ocean
C G D
And she's pounded by wind from the sea
G Em C G
You might think that she's rugged and cold
D G
But she's home sweet home to me.
[Verse]
G Bm C G
Been tortured for centuries her stories untold
Em C D
She struggled with fortunes unknown
Em D C G
Laid bare by the glaciers as they scraped her to the bone
D G
Taking soil to make Grand Bank shoals.
D C G
She's been battered for eons by the cold biting winds
Em D C
Chewing rocks to soft beaches of sand
G D C
And carving her face and giving us a place
G D G
That we now call Newfoundland.
[Chorus]
G D G
She's a rocky isle in the ocean
C G D
And she's pounded by wind from the sea
G Em C G
You might think that she's rugged and cold
D G
But she's home sweet home to me.
[Verse]
G Bm C G
The ocean surrounds her, it gives and it takes
Em C D
Like shepherd, lion and lamb
Em D C G
The pounding and grinding is a constant reminding
D G
Of the forces that follow the town
D C
From the fury of a blizzard on a cold winter's night
Em D C
To the quiet of a warm summer's day
G D C
All hardships forgotten, old debts are repaid
D G
With a day on a quiet peaceful bay.
[Chorus]
G D G
She's a rocky isle in the ocean
C G D
And she's pounded by wind from the sea
G Em C G
You might think that she's rugged and cold
D G
But she's home sweet home to me.
G D G
She's a rocky isle in the ocean
C G D
And she's pounded by wind from the sea
G Em C G
You might think that she's rugged and cold
D G
But she's home sweet home to me.
D G
Boy's she's home sweet home to me.
