Lyrics

Six (D5)years I’ve been in the ci ty

and ev ’ry night

I dream of the sea.

They say home

is where you find it,

will this place

ev er sat is fy (D5)me?

For I come from the salt wa ter peo ple,

we al ways (G5)live

by the sea.

Now I’m down here, liv ing in the ci ty

with my man

and a fa mi ly.

My is land home,

my is land home,

my is land home

is wait ing for me.

My is land home,

my is land home,

my is land home

is wait ing for me.

In the eve ning a dry wind blows

from the hills

and a cross the plains.

I (Bm)close my eyes and I’m stand ing

in a boat,

on the sea a gain.

And I’m (Bm)hold ing that long tur tle spear

and I feel I’m close now

to where it must be.

My is land home

is wait ing for me.

A ha,

a ha,

a ha,

a ha,

a ha,

a ha,

a ha,

a ha,

a ha,

a ha,

For I

is wait ing for me.

My is land home,

my is land home,

my is land home

is wait ing for me.

My is land home,

my is land home,

my is land home

is wait ing for me.

My is land home,

my is land home,

my is land home,

my is land home.
