Ok b'ys, this is for all those newfies out there who want to learn an awesome song! It 
originally  written by my great uncle, Wince Coles.
I love this song! Enjoy!!

G              D            G           C
I remember the time when my grandpa and I
      G          D       Em
Would sit by the fire at night
    G             D           G          C
And I?d listen to stories, of how he was there
       G           D        Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light
       G           D        G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light.

G                D        G         C
He said: Mom and Dad sent me off to school
        G              D           Em
Where I learned how to read and to write
         G            D           G            C
And they listened for hours, as I read from my books
       G           D         Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light,
       G           D        G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light.


G                D          G           C
Your Grandma and I, we were Wed at Sixteen
      G         D         Em
Lord, she was a beautiful sight
    G         D          G           C
And proudly I placed the ring on her hand
       G           D         Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light,
       G           D        G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light.


G              D            G        C
About one year later, your daddy was born
         G            D          Em
And your grandma held my hand so tight
      G              D           G                 C
Oh! I can?t tell the joy, as she brought forth new life
       G           D         Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light,
       G           D        G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light.


G              D             G          C
But having her child, it did weaken her soul
    G           D         Em
She just wasn?t up to the fight,
        G         D                G           C
But she looked so peaceful, as she went to her rest
       G           D         Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light,
       G           D        G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light.

G        D        G               C
Then, as now, the times they were hard
      G              D            Em
To succeed you would try all your might
    G              D           G                C
But sometimes love blooms, and sometimes dreams die
       G           D         Em
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light,
       G           D        G
By the Glow of the Kerosene Light.
