D               A
I don't know if you can see
    D                      G
the changes that have come over me
         D                  A            
in these last few days I've been afraid
     D              G
that I might drift away
             D                    A
so I've been telling old stories, singing songs
     D                   G
that make me think about where I came from
    D                 A
and that's the reason why I seem
   D          G
so far away today

Chorus

       D                      A
ah but let me tell you that I love you
      D                       G
and I think about you all the time
G                D                      A     D
Caledonia you're calling me and now I'm going home
D                        A
but if I should become a stranger
              D                          G
you know that it would make me more than sad
G                A                    D
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had

I have moved and 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 ladies, left them crying
stolen dreams, yes there's no denying
I have travelled hard, sometimes with conscience flying
somewhere in the wind

CHORUS

Now I'm sitting here before the fire
the empty room, the forest choir
the flames that couldn'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
the hands have shaken and the kisses flow
now I will disappear

CHORUS
