Portland Town
Capo: 6th Fret
[Chorus]
D A
I see the light, across the bay
D G
I see the light, not far away
D A
And I hear music, all around
Em A
I’m getting close, to Portland Town
D A
So Mother won’t you, make my bed
D G
I see the light, of Portland Head
D A
I see the light, I’m comin’ round
Bm G A D
I’m comin’ home, to Portland Town
[Verse 1]
A D G A D D7
Some years ago, out on my own
G A D
I set a course, for parts unknown
Em A Bm
Leavin’ behind, both friend and foe
G D Em
Needin’ to find, what I’ve come to know
A D G A D
As I watched the is… lands, fade away
D7 G
And bid farewell, to Casco Bay
D A
Though it’s been years, and years since then
Bm G D Em
My heart has brought me home again
[Chorus]
D A
And I see the light, across the bay
D G
I see the light, not far away
D A
And I hear music, all around
Em A
I’m getting close, to Portland Town
D A
So Mother won’t you, make my bed
D G
I see the light, of Portland Head
D A
I see the light, I’m comin’ round
Bm G A D
I’m comin’ home, to Portland Town
[Verse 2]
A D G A D D7
Of all the places, I could go
G A D
She’s still the fairest, port I know
Em A Bm
She works the sea, and tills the farms
G D Em
And holds her children, in her arms
A D G A D
No place to know, a prouder past
D7 G
Here comes the future, full at last
D A
Here comes that beacon, ‘cross the sky
Bm G D Em
And when I hold, my head up high…
[Chorus]
D A
I see the light, across the bay
D G
I see the light, not far away
D A
And I hear music, all around
Em A
I’m getting close, to Portland Town
D A
So Mother won’t you, make my bed
D G
I see the light, of Portland Head
D A
I see the light, I’m comin’ round
Bm G A D
I’m comin’ home, to Portland Town
