I was born in old Cape Breton A place not [Db] far away
I could get on [Ab] board a ferry boat And sail to [Eb] Port of Ascate
[Ab] Then I'd see the rugged coastline And I'd bring my old [Db] squeeze box along
And I would [Ab] be a newfie boy [Eb] Singing a [Ab] newfie song

I'd travel around the countryside To places [Db] near and far
And I'd have me a [Ab] drink of newfie screech Somewhere in a [Eb] newfie bar
[Ab] And I'd get to know the people there They all seemed to [Db] get along
And I'd take my [Ab] old guitar out [Eb] And sing them a [Ab] newfie song
I wish I was a newfie boy I'd sing a [Db] newfie song
I'd sail out [Ab] in the harbor On a schooner [Eb] sleepin' long
[Ab] I'd wear a big southwestern It's a dream I've [Db] had so long
I wish I [Ab] was a newfie boy [Eb] Singing a [Ab] newfie song

Well I'm still here on the other side Just livin' day [Db] to day _
And dreamin' of [Ab] the rocky shore On the other side [Eb] of the bay
Well [Ab] I know I'll have to settle here And try to [Db] get along
I guess I'll just [Ab] be a Cape Breton boy [Eb] Singing a [Ab] newfie song
I'll always just be a Cape Breton boy [Eb] Singing a [Ab] newfie song
