Nova Scotia Farewell Lyrics & Chords By Rising Gael

Farewell to Nova Scotia
and to the coast bound sea
Will you ever breathe a sigh,
or have the wish for me.

The sun is setting in the west
The birds, they sing on every tree
All nature seemed inclined to rest
but there is still no rest for me.

I grieve to leave my land
to leave my family,
I grieve to leave my man
to my heart he holds the key.

The sun is setting in the west
The birds, they sing on every tree
All nature seemed inclined to rest
but there is still no rest for me.

I have three brothers dead
their arms folded ore their chest
They fell the deep blue sea
that ocean put them to their rest.

The sun is setting in the west
The birds, they sing on every tree
All nature seemed inclined to rest
but there is still no rest for me.

The sun is setting in the west
The birds, they sing on every tree
All nature seemed inclined to rest
but there is still no rest for me.
