Verse 1:
(E)
I have returned, to northern skies,
Am E
Where the summer hasn't touched, the clouds that pass above
(E)
I have returned, to the somber grace,
Am E
Of the days too early to come, and too hurried to stay.
Verse 2:
(E)
Oh I have left, a million stars,
Am E
And an ocean light, and clearly blue.
(E)
And I have left, the warmth of the sun,
Am E
And a million adventures, not yet begun.

And once there was magic here for me,

Verse 3:
(E)
I saw trees as green, and this dark as blue,
Am E
Heartbreak and poetry, with deeper roots
(E)
Now I know, this is lonely country,
Am E
And it leads me only, back to the sea.
Chorus 2:

And once there was magic here for me,
