G        C   G
From the pines of California
                       C
And by Chile's endless strand
        D                      G
We ha'e sailed the world twice over
      D             G
Every port in every land


[Chorus]
              C       G
Rolling home, rolling home
                        C
Rolling home across the sea
        D           G
Rolling home to Caledonia
        D                   G
Rolling home, dear land, to thee


[Verse 3]
              C        G
And to all ye blaggard pirates
                            C
Who would chase us from the waves
        D                      G
Heed ye well that those who've tried us
          D                  G
Soon have found their watery graves


[Chorus]
              C       G
Rolling home, rolling home
                        C
Rolling home across the sea
        D           G
Rolling home to Caledonia
        D                   G
Rolling home, dear land, to thee


[Verse 4]
                C    G
We were boarded in Jamaica
                       C
Where the Jolly Rodger flew
        D                  G
But our swords were hardly drawn, boys
          D           G
'Ere they took a rosy hue


[Chorus]
              C       G
Rolling home, rolling home
                        C
Rolling home across the sea
        D           G
Rolling home to Caledonia
        D                   G
Rolling home, dear land, to thee


[Verse 5]
               C        G
We return with precious cargo
                          C
And with bounty coined in gold
        D                  G
And our sweethearts will rejoice, boys
         D                  G
For they lo'e their sailors bold


[Chorus]
              C       G
Rolling home, rolling home
                        C
Rolling home across the sea
        D           G
Rolling home to Caledonia
        D                   G
Rolling home, dear land, to thee


[Chorus]
              N.C.
Rolling home, rolling home

Rolling home across the sea
N.C.
Rolling home to Caledonia
