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.
