Chord/Tab song: Flower of the West

Runrig - Flower of the West


[Intro] E

[Verse]
Sunb[E]urst
[B]On the morning m[E]oor
The light of [G#m]God
The he[A]art of yo[E]uth

I look around me
My e[B]yes find their r[A]est on this ga[Asus4]rden
The f[F#m]lower of the w[B]est

[Chorus]
The silent sk[E]ies
An innocent h[E]eart
Holding the m[A]oment [G#m]away
[F#m]From time in the [E]dark
All I s[E]ee. All I know
Is touching the s[A]acred e[G#m]arth
And w[F#m]arming the hallowed g[E]round

[Bridge]

[B] Wa[A]lk on [B] Wa[F#m]lk on

[Vocal section]
[E]I survive the childhood universe
And I [B]step the naked heath
Where the b[E]reathing of the vanished
Lies in a[B]cres round my feet
[E]Loch Scadavagh Loch Fada
And the fl[B]atlands to the east
Where the d[E]ark blue mass of Eval
Meets the r[B]ising Rock of Lee
Between the C[E]rogary and Maairi
I s[B]tarted to descend
Loch Aong[E]ais on my left hand side
I l[B]ook across to Clett
Collies b[E]arking on the outrun
Dunli[B]n dancing on the sand
Breakers sh[A]ow round Corran Vallique
And e[D]mpty the Atl[F#m]antic on the st[B]rand

[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

Enjoy!
