Thread Name: Lyr Req: Home from the Sea (Phil Coulter)
Subject: Tune Add: HOME FROM THE SEA (Coulter, Hendrickson)
I can't give you the original tune/chords. When I first saw the lyrics I liked them very much, but couldn't find the tune. So, as I often do in such a situation, I made up my own tune. So here it is for what it's worth. I rather like it. Later, after hearing the original Phil Coulter version, I still like my alternate tune/version.

Here it is in abc format. To get a score and a midi file, copy and paste the abc into Concertina.net convert-a-matic

X:1
T:Home From The Sea
C:words, Phil Coulter/music, Stewart Hendrickson
M:3/4
L:1/8
Q:1/4=145
