Chords with lyrics
[Verse 1]
C majorC FF C majorC
Last night I heard the voice of Thomas Fraser
C majorC G+G
And the comfort of his words came to my ears
C majorC FF
By a willow he was singing to the catfish
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
And time had withered not his tender years
C majorC G+G C majorC
Oh time had withered not his tender years
[Verse 2]
C majorC FF C majorC
And the hummingbirds were singing while he played his old guitar
C majorC G+G
And with every word he sang the breeze was still
C majorC FF C majorC
And a light was shining down upon the water from his eye
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
If Thomas Fraser wants then Thomas will
C majorC G+G C majorC
Oh If Thomas Fraser wants, Thomas will
[Verse 3]
C majorC FF C majorC
If he sang of life's misfortunes he would sing up to the sky
C majorC G+G
As he struggled through the dangers of the deep
C majorC FF C majorC
And a moment when he gazed upon a loving Shetland moon
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
And a love song for his family in their sleep
C majorC G+G C majorC
Oh a love song for his family in their sleep
[Verse 4]
C majorC FF C majorC
And the hummingbirds were singing while he played his old guitar
C majorC G+G
And with every word he sang the breeze was still
C majorC FF C majorC
And a light was shining down upon the water from his eye
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
If Thomas Fraser wants then Thomas will
C majorC G+G C majorC
Oh If Thomas Fraser wants, Thomas will
[Verse 5]
C majorC FF C majorC
If you join him by the willow you'll be welcome
C majorC G+G
To soothe the savage breast his voice will try
C majorC FF C majorC
You all will be made welcome there where peace of mind has curly hair
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
Thomas sings and plays to tell us why
C majorC G+G C majorC
Oh Thomas sings and plays to tell us why
[Verse 6]
C majorC FF C majorC
And the hummingbirds were singing while he played his old guitar
C majorC G+G
And with every word he sang the breeze was still
C majorC FF C majorC
And a light was shining down upon the water from his eye
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
If Thomas Fraser wants then Thomas will
C majorC G+G C majorC
Oh If Thomas Fraser wants, Thomas will
[Outro]
A minorAm C majorC
As Thomas sang his song a baby sang along
C majorC G+G C majorC
If Thomas Fraser wants then Thomas will
C majorC G+G C majorC
