My Nova Scotia Home
Written and recorded by Hank Snow
C G7
There's a place I'll always cherish neath the blue Atlantic skies
C
Where the shores down in Cape Breton bid the golden sun to rise
F
And the fragrance of the apple blossoms sprays the dew kissed lawns
C G7 C
Back in dear old Nova Scotia a place where I was born
G7
The Scotian and the Ocean Limited and the Maritime Express
C
Their mighty engines throbbing make their way towards the west
F
And the sturdy fishin' schooners sways so lazily to and fro
C G7 C
Nova Scotia is my sanctuary and I love it so
G7
For across the great Dominion I have traveled far and wide
C
Where the shores out in Vancouver kiss the blue Pacific tide
I have crossed the snowcapped Rockies
F
Saw the wheat fields' golden blaze
C G7 C
Headed back to Nova Scotia where contented cattle graze
G7
Where the pretty Robin Red Breast seeks its' loved ones in the trees
C
And the French dialect in old Quebec keeps callin' out to me
F
It seems to say beyond your way there's a welcome at the door
C G7 C
Where the kinfolks are a waiting on that gay Atlantic shore
G7
Down through beautiful New Brunswick and across the P.E.I.
C
To the rockbound coasts of Newfoundland I'll love them till I die
F
But if God came here on Earth with us and asked if He could rest
C G7 C
I'd take Him to my Nova Scotia home the place that I love best
