Celtic Folk Heading for Halifax Lyrics:
Heading for Halifax

G D G C
Late spring the leaves
have turned green,
G Em D
And there's sheep on
the hill side, there's
birds on the wing.
G D C G
Over my shoulder the last
time I'm seeing,
D C G
The old home all
weathered and grey
G D G C
We talked till three,
my father and me,
G Em D
And the fiddle tunes
flowed like the pure
Margaree,
G D C G
"Never forget who you
are,son", said he.
D C G

As I followed my brothers away.

CHORUS:

Em
And I'm heading for
Halifax to see what's
to spare,
D
In the way of some work
and if there's nothing
there,
Em
It's Toronto, Out west,
to God only knows
where,
C G D
But there's bound to be
friends from back home.

G D G C
One thing I know, wherever I go,
G Em D
My heart's in Cape
Breton it will always
be so.
G D C G
Whenever the fiddler he
rosens his bow,
D C G
My first and last
thoughts are of home.

Cho.
