Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Verse:
C majorC        G/DG/D
I don't know if you can see,
   C/EC/E          Fsus2Fsus2
The changes that have come over me.
     C majorC         G/DG/D
In these last few days I've been afraid,
   C/EC/E      Fsus2Fsus2
That I might drift away.
      C majorC        G/DG/D
I've been telling stories, singing songs,
   C/EC/E         Fsus2Fsus2
That make me think about where I come from.
 C majorC        G/DG/D
That's the reason why I seem
  C/EC/E    Fsus2Fsus2
So far away today.

Chorus:
C majorC           G+G
Let me tell you that I love you,
    C majorC            Fsus2Fsus2
That I think about you all the time.
         C majorC
Caledonia you're calling me,
    G+G   C majorC
Now I'm going home.
  C majorC            G+G
But if I should become a stranger,
     C majorC             Fsus2Fsus2
Know that it would make me more than sad,
         G+G          C majorC
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had.


Verse:
C majorC          G/DG/D
Now I have moved and kept on moving,
C/EC/E            Fsus2Fsus2
Proved the points that I needed proving,
C majorC             G/DG/D
Lost the friends that I needed losing,
    C/EC/E      Fsus2Fsus2
Found others on the way.
    C majorC          G/DG/D
I have kissed the ladies and left them crying,
C/EC/E            Fsus2Fsus2
Stolen dreams, yes there's no denying,
     C majorC              G/DG/D
I have travelled hard sometimes with conscience flying,
C/EC/E        FsusFsus
Somewhere with the wind.

Chorus:
C majorC            G+G
Let me tell you that I love you,
    C majorC            Fsus2Fsus2
That I think about you all the time.
         C majorC
Caledonia you're calling me,
     G+G   C majorC
Now I'm going home.
  C majorC            G+G
But if I should become a stranger,
     C majorC             Fsus2Fsus2
Know that it would make me more than sad,
         G+G           C majorC
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had.


Verse:
C majorC           G/DG/D
Now I'm sitting here before the fire,
C/EC/E        Fsus2Fsus2
The empty room, a forest choir,
   C majorC           G/DG/D
The flames that couldn't get any higher,
     C/EC/E         Fsus2Fsus2
They've withered now they've gone.
     C majorC         G/DG/D
But I'm steady thinking my way is clear,
  C/EC/E        Fsus2Fsus2
And I know what I will do tomorrow,
    C majorC           G/DG/D
When hands have shaken, and kisses flown,
   C majorC      Fsus2Fsus2
Then I will disappear.


Chorus:
C majorC           G+G
Let me tell you that I love you,
    C majorC            Fsus2Fsus2
That I think about you all the time.
         C majorC
Caledonia you're calling me,
     G+G   C majorC
Now I'm going home.
   C majorC           G+G
But if I should become a stranger,
     C majorC             Fsus2Fsus2
Know that it would make me more than sad,
         G+G          C majorC
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had.
