Sweet Caledonia chords by Blake Rose

Chords with lyrics

♫ Verse 1:
     G+G
It was a island wedding

For two love striken faces
      B minorBm      D MajorD      G+G
Trick are wasting and hearts were full


    G+G
These ghosts on the walls

just got in pathways
        B minorBm      D MajorD    G+G
The line they outside, and down to help
          G+G
There was an old weeping willow

It stood where the path opened
     B minorBm       D MajorD     G+G
It had a rope swing and wide wood bench
     G+G
We would sit there for ages
While our parents all drank like sailors
      B minorBm     D MajorD  G+G
Wondering where these stars went

♫ Chorus:
A augmentedA
 How did I get so far?
            B minorBm   D MajorD    G+G
How did I get so far, running away from you?
A augmentedA
 How did I get so caught up?
            B minorBm    D MajorD     G+G
How did I get so lost, trying to hide from you?

From my shadow

♫ Verse 2:
      G+G
We’d use pocket knives to carve weapons

Adventure out into the woods
         B minorBm       D MajorD    G+G
And stretch for miles from the backyard fence
      G+G
Then we forget we fight

Imaginary beings
       B minorBm    D MajorD    G+G
Like all the ones we dream at night
♫ Chorus:
A augmentedA
 How did I get so far?
            B minorBm   D MajorD    G+G
How did I get so far, running away from you?
A augmentedA
 How did I get so caught up?
            B minorBm    D MajorD     G+G
How did I get so lost, trying to hide from you?

From my childhood, yeah

♫ Outro:
           D MajorD
Yeah
I could still taste
Sweet Caledonia

sweet caledonia
B minorBm   A augmentedA  D MajorD

I’m fading)
B minorBm   A augmentedA  D MajorD  G+G
sweet caledonia
B minorBm   A augmentedA  D MajorD
sweet caledonia
G+G              A augmentedA
 You say when it start to glow
  B minorBm        F# minorF#m    G+G
How far the little things they go
               B minorBm   A augmentedA D MajorD  G+G
Yeah
I could still taste
Sweet Caledonia
         A augmentedA
like a breaking road
   B minorBm      F# minorF#m  G+G
It’s hard to ever really know
                   D MajorD
But I’ll stay with you when you’re older
