Farewell to Nova Scotia Harmonica Tab

VERSE
7 7 -8 7 5 -5 6 6 -5 6
The sun was set-ting in the west

7 -7 -6 -7 7 7 -8 -6 -6’ -6
The birds were sing-ing in ev-’ry tree

7 -8 8 8 -8 -8 -7 6 6 -7 -8
All na-ture seemed in- clined for rest

7 -8 8 7 7 -7 -6 -6 -6 6 -4 -6 -6
But still there was no rest for me

VERSE
i grieve to leave my native land
and i grieve to leave my comrades all
and my parents whom i hold so dear
and the bonnie, bonnie lass that i do adore.

CHORUS
-6 -7 7 -7 7 -7 -8 7
Fare- well to No-va Sco-tia

5 -5 6 5 6
The sea bound coast

7 -7 -6 -7 7 -7 8 -6 -6’ -6
Let your moun-tains, dark and drear- y be

7 -8 8 8 8 -8 -8
For when I am far a-way

-8 -7 6 6 6 -7 -8
On the bri-ny o-cean tossed

7 -8 8 -8 7 -7 -6 -7
Will you e-ver heave a sigh

6 -5 5 -7 -7
And a wish for me?

VERSE
the drums they do beat and the wars to alarm
the captain cries, and we must obey
so farewell, farewell to Nova Scotia’s charms
for it’s early in the mornin’ and i’m far, far away

CHORUS

VERSE
i have three brothers and they are at rest
their arms are crossed upon their breast
but a poor simple sailor jest like me
must be tossed and driven in the cold black sea

CHORUS
