Runrig - Flower of the West

[Intro] E


[Verse]
  E
Sunburst
B        E
On the morning moor
       G#m
The light of God
   A    E
The heart of youth

I look around me
  B        A       Asus4
My eyes find their rest on this garden
   F#m      B
The flower of the west


[Chorus]
       E
The silent skies
       E
An innocent heart
       A   G#m
Holding the moment away
F#m       E
From time in the dark
    E
All I see. All I know
         A   G#m
Is touching the sacred earth
   F#m         E
And warming the hallowed ground


[Bridge]

B  A    B   F#m
 Walk on    Walk on


[Vocal section]
E
I survive the childhood universe
   B
And I step the naked heath
      E
Where the breathing of the vanished
     B
Lies in acres round my feet
E
Loch Scadavagh Loch Fada
     B
And the flatlands to the east
      E
Where the dark blue mass of Eval
      B
Meets the rising Rock of Lee
       E
Between the Crogary and Maairi
  B
I started to descend
     E
Loch Aongais on my left hand side
  B
I look across to Clett
     E
Collies barking on the outrun
   B
Dunlin dancing on the sand
      A
Breakers show round Corran Vallique
   D      F#m      B
And empty the Atlantic on the strand


[The rest of the verses/chorus use the same chords]


Sunrise
The colour frontier
The ageing light
The sight that knows no fear
I look over Orinsay to the Trumisgarry shore
To Aloter
And the road to Ahmore

The silent skies
An innocent heart
Holding the moment away
From time in the dark
All I see. All I know
Is touching the sacred earth
Warming the hallowed ground
