Farewell To Nova Scotia Tabulatur von Traditional Canadian (für Baryton)

[INTRO]

G


[VERSE 1]

G
The sun was setting in the west
Em
The birds were singing on every tree
     G               D
All nature seemed inclined for to rest
     Em          C      Em
But still there was no rest for me


[CHORUS]

    G
Farewell to Nova Scotia, you seabound coast
         Em
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
         G                    D
For when I am far away on the briny ocean tossed
         Em           C         Em
Will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me?


[VERSE II]

  G
I grieve to leave my native land
  Em
I grieve to leave my comrades all
       G               D
And my parents, whom I held so dear
       Em           C             Em
And my bonny, bonny lassie that I do adore


[CHORUS]

    G
Farewell to Nova Scotia, you seabound coast
         Em
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
         G                    D
For when I am far away on the briny ocean tossed
         Em           C         Em
Will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me?


[VERSE III]
    G
The drums do beat and the wars do alarm
   Em
My captain calls, I must obey
   G                     D
So farewell, farewell to Nova Scotia's charm
         Em           C                Em
For it's early in the morning, I'll be far, far away


[CHORUS]

    G
Farewell to Nova Scotia, you seabound coast
         Em
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
         G                    D
For when I am far away on the briny ocean tossed
         Em           C         Em
Will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me?


[VERSE IV]
  G
I have three brothers and they are at rest
      Em
Their arms are folded on their breasts
      G                      D
But a poor and simple sailor just like me
        Em         C             Em
Must be tossed and driven on the dark, blue sea
