[Verse]
A
The sun was setting in the west
F#m Bm F#m
The birds were singing on every tree
A E
All nature seemed inclined to rest
A F#m Bm F#m
But still there was no rest for me
[Chorus]
E A
Farewell to Nova Scotia the sea-bound coast
F#m Bm F#m
Let your mountains dark and dreary be
A E
For when I am far away on your briny ocean tossed
A F#m Bm F#m
Will you ever leave a sigh or a wish for me
[Verse]
A
I greive to leave my native land
F#m Bm F#m
I grieve to leave my comrades all
A E
And my parents whom I held so dear
A F#m Bm F#m
And the bonny, bonny lassie that I do adore
[Chorus]
E A
Farewell to Nova Scotia the sea-bound coast

[Verse]
A
The drums they do beat and the wards do alarm
F#m Bm F#m
The Captain calls, I must obey
A E
So farewell farewell to my Nova Scotia home
A F#m Bm F#m
For it's early in the morning that I'm far, far away
[Chorus]

Farewell to Nova Scotia the sea-bound coast

Will you ever leave a sigh or a wish for me
[Verse]
A
I had three brothers and they are at rest
F#m Bm F#m
Their arms are folded on their chests
A E
But a poor simple sailor just like me
A F#m Bm F#m
Must be tossed and driven on the deep, blue sea
[Chorus]
E A
Farewell to Nova Scotia the sea-bound coast

Let your mountains dark and dreary be
