When I think of you Scotia
D A
There's a love that just bleeds in my heart

In my childhood days we went our different ways
Bm A
But you knew that we'd never part

Now I'm all alone and you're calling me home
D
You knew our love could never die
Bm
And through my roving eyes always led me astray
D
Now I'm coming back home Scotia don't walk away
A D
Bring the wind to carry me over

Lead me home to my town

Tell me when the breeze is blowing

Taking me home, to my town

So when I think of you Scotia
D A
There's a magic that fills the air

We're the "Downtown boys" making all that noise
Bm A
Oh! We lived like we just don't care
Bm Fm#
So we drank our fill for king and country
D
Yeah! Till the last soldier fell!

Burlington Bertie you're in my heart forever
D
I want to drown in the stories you tell
A D
Bring the wind to carry me over
Fm# Bm
Lead me home to my town

Tell me when the breeze is blowing

Taking me home, to my town
Oooooooooooooohhh to my town

You made me all I can ever be

If I should fall you love will
Rescue me
