Homeland

      D                       G
This is my homeland, my heart is here
           D                 A
these are the voices I long to hear
         D            G
No matter how far I may roam
    D          A             D     G    D     A              D
I have a homeland, I have a home; I have a homeland, I have a home

[Verse 1]
                A                   D
When the sun goes down in the evening light
                Bm   G               D
It moves like a ghost through starry night
                             G
When Sirius twinkles to hypnotize
             D   A    D
It's good to sit  and realize

[Chorus]
          D                      G
This is my homeland, my heart is here
              D                A
these are the voices I long to hear
          D             G
No matter how far I may roam
        D    A              D
I have a homeland, I have a home

[Verse 2]
           A                       D
I love her story's and the tellers gift
           Bm G            D
I love the lonesome pipers drift
                               G
No greener fields do I need to see
             D   A              D
These simple things they comfort me

[Chorus]
           D                     G
This is my homeland, my heart is here
              D                A
these are the voices I long to hear
          D             G
No matter how far I may roam
         D   A              D
I have a homeland, I have a home

[Bridge]
D A G

[Verse 3]
            A                D
If for some reason I had to quit
           Bm   G         D
This river bench where I sit
                             G
I think I'd weep for and old refrain
          A                 D
And never doubt the pouring rain

[Chorus]
           D                     G
This is my homeland, my heart is here
             D                 A
these are the voices I long to hear
          D             G
No matter how far I may roam
         D   A              D
I have a homeland, I have a home (x4)

[Outro]
 D          A             D
I have a home I have a homeland, I have a home
