 G              C 
Through these misty eyes  
       Am 
I see lonely skies 
        C           Am 
Lonely road to Babylon 
 
              C 
Where's my family ROAD 
        Am 
And my country 
        C                Am 
Heaven knows where I belong 
 
Dm  F  C  G 
 
         C 
Pack my bags tonight 
        Am 
Here's one Jacobite 
          C               Am 
Who must leave or surely die 
        C 
Put me on a train 
        Am 
In the pouring rain  
      C                     Am 
Say farewell but don't say goodbye 
 
 
 
Chorus: 
 
Dm                 F 
Seagull carry me, over land and sea 
           Am            C             G 
To my own folk, that's where I want to be 
 
C                  Am 
Every beat of my heart 
C                  Am 
Tears me further apart 
F             C           Am 
I'm lost and alone in the dark 
G          C   Am  G 
I'm going home 
 
 
 
          C 
One more glass of wine 
         Am 
Just for auld lang syne 
 
	C		Am 
And the girl I left behind 
 
       C 
How I miss her now  
      Am 
In my darkest hour 
        C                Am 
And the way our arms entwine 
 
 
 
Chorus: 
 
Dm                 F 
Seagull carry me, over land and sea 
           Am            C             G 
To my own folk, that's where I want to be 
 
C                  Am 
Every beat of my heart 
C                  Am 
Tears me further apart 
F             C           Am 
I'm lost and alone in the dark 
G          C   Am  G 
I'm going home 
 
 
 
          C 
And we'll drink a toast 
         Am 
To the blood red rose 
         C                 Am 
Cheer a while the Emerald Isle 
 
	    C 
And to the northern lights 
         Am 
And the swirling pipes 
         C               Am 
How they make a grown man cry 
 
 
Chorus: 
 
Dm                 F 
Seagull carry me, over land and sea 
           Am            C             G 
To my own folk, that's where I want to be 
 
C                  Am 
Every beat of my heart 
C                  Am 
Tears me further apart 
F             C           Am 
I'm lost and alone in the dark 
G          C   Am  G 
I'm going home 
 
           C   Am  G 
I'm going home.............
