Verse:
G Em D C Em
If you wander over west where the hills lie all clothed in deep green
Dadd9/F# C D C D Em
Down to black seas where the seals slip unseen
C Em
And in the Arisaig of nowhere

There's a boat that will go there

Bring whiskey for waves

And let the spray leave you clean

Verse:
G Em D C Em
There she rises out of mist to the sounds of the pipes on her shores
Dadd9/F# C D C D Em
They sing of men in a land with no laws
C Em C Em
And by the dawn, you'll be losing brain cells while you're boozing
D C
They'll leave you wheeling like gulls
D G
But you'll come back for more
Chorus:
Em C
The night's all but gone, but we're still holding on
G D
My lips have turned blue, and her hair was blue too
C Em
I've lost all my friends, blown my brains out to sea
G D
Oh, Eigg, you have cracked it, but I think you've cracked me
Em C
The music won't end 'til we're all 'round the bend
G D
And I can't feel my face but in this sacred place
C Em
High rocks surrounding us, thick mist enshrouding us
G D
Our own sacred isle where the world can't get hold of us
Verse:
G Em D C Em
And as we stagger back to boats that will tear us away from her shores
Dadd9/F# C D C D Em
Part of my heart in her harbor stays moored
C Em C Em
And though she breeds bad behavior, her beauty will save you
Dadd9/F# C
If it's freedom you need
D G Em D C Em D G
Let the isle be your cure Published:
