You'll find me sitting at this table
C majorC FF G+G
with my friend Fin and my friend John
A minorAm E minorEm FF
My friend Murdaney tells us stories
C majorC G+G
of things long gone lone gone
C majorC FF G+G
And we may take a glass together
C majorC FF G+G
the whisky makes it all so clear
A minorAm E minorEm FF
It fires our dulled imaginations
C majorC G+G
and I feel so near so near

C majorC FF
I feel so near to the howling of the wind
C majorC FF
Feel so near to the crashing of the waves
C majorC A minorAm FF
Feel so near to the flowers in the field
C majorC FF C majorC FF
Feel so near

The old man looks out to the island
C majorC FF G+G
he says this place is endless thin
A minorAm E minorEm FF

C majorC G+G
we might all fall in all fall in
C majorC FF G+G
No distance to the spirits of the living
C majorC FF G+G
no distance to the spirits of the dead
A minorAm E minorEm FF
And as he turned his eyes were shining
C majorC G+G
and he proudly said proudly said

So we build our tower constructions
C majorC FF G+G
there to mark our place in time
A minorAm E minorEm FF
We justify our great destructions
C majorC G+G
as on we climb on we climb
C majorC FF G+G
Now the journey doesn't seem to matter
C majorC FF G+G
the destination's faded out
A minorAm E minorEm FF
And gathering out along the headland
C majorC G+G
I hear the children shout children shout

C majorC FF
I feel so near to the howling of the wind
C majorC FF
Feel so near to the crashing of the waves
C majorC A minorAm FF
Feel so near to the flowers in the field
