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
