Runrig - Flower of the West

[Intro] E MajorE


[Verse]
  E MajorE
Sunburst
BB        E MajorE
On the morning moor
       G# minorG#m
The light of God
   A augmentedA    E MajorE
The heart of youth

I look around me
  BB        A augmentedA       Asus4Asus4
My eyes find their rest on this garden
   F# minorF#m      BB
The flower of the west

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


[Bridge]

BB  A augmentedA    BB   F# minorF#m
 Walk on    Walk on


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