[G] I don't know if [A] you can see [G] Jesus dead have come over me
In these few [D] days I've been afraid [G] that I might drift away
So I'm telling [A] stories, singing [G] songs To make me think about where I come from
That's the reason [Dm]
why I sing [G] so far away today
[C]
[G] Let me tell you that I love [E] you And I think about [Gm] you all [C] the time
[G] Caledonia, you're calling me [A] I'm [G] going on
If I would become a stranger, [E] you know It would make me [C] more than sad
Caledonia [D] has been every day I [G] ever had

Now I've moved and kept on moving [G] Through the points [E] that I needed proving
Lost a friend, I [A] needed losing [Dm] I knew I was [G] on my [C] way
[G] I kissed the ladies, [A] laughed and cried [G] Stolen dreams, yes, I [D] still deny
A jumping heart [A] with conscience flying [G] Somewhere in [D] the wind
[G] So let me tell you that [E] I love you And I think about you [C] all the time
[G] Caledonia, you're calling me [A] I'm going on
[G] If I would become a stranger, [E] you know It would make me more [C] than sad
Caledonia [D] has been every day I ever [G] had

Now I'm sitting here [A] before the fire The empty room before the squire
The flames that could me [Am] get on higher [Gm] They're waiting now [G] to go
[Em] But I'm [G] steady thinking [A] my way is clear And [G] I will know what I did tomorrow
When hands are shaking [Dm] and kisses flow Then I will [C] disappear
[G] So let me tell you that [D] I love you And [E] I think about you [D] all the time
Caledonia, [G] you're calling me [A] I'm going on
If I would become [D] a stranger, you [E] know It would make me more [C] than sad
