[N] [Em] I'm a Newfoundlander born and bred [G] and I'll be one till [Em] I die
I'm proud to be an islander, [E] here's the reason why
[A] I'm free as the wind [G] and the waves that wash [Em] the sand
There's no place I would rather be than here in [G] Newfoundland Diddleyada, [E] diddleyada
I spent some [G] time in New York State and nearly lost [E] my mind
That city life's too fast for me, [F#] nobody [E] has the time

There's no place I would rather be than here in Newfoundland Diddleyada, diddleyada
Now [E] that we own our rules and our shores we'd better take the time
To develop [Em] it more [A] carefully or else [E] we're gonna find
[A] What caught up in the answer to our poor [E] economy
Has changed our way [Em] of living and destroyed our [E] fishery
I'm a [Em] Newfoundlander born and bred and I'll be one till I die
I'm proud to be an islander, here's the reason why
[A] I'm free as the wind and the waves that wash the [Em] sand
