CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: G D (4x)
Head of ribbons running [Em]down the brae
[C]In the morning, in the morning[G]
Barefoot sisters and a [Em]milking pail
[C]Turning a[D]round[G]
At the weekend the [Em]boats come in
[C]From the herring, from the herring[G]
Wives and families and the [Em]table laid
[C]Turning a[D]gain
CHORUS:
For[G]ever you'll be eyes of [D]blue
In the [G]circle of your [C]youth
Picking [G]every blade of [D]truth
Down the Newton [C]road__[D]_[G]
War is over and the [Em]boys come home
[C]From the fighting, from the fighting[G]
Love letters and a [Em]great unknown
[C]Turning a[D]gain[G]
Counting your blessings at the [Em]village hall
[C]To the dancing, to the dancing[G]
A lot of loving and a [Em]lot of soul
[C]Turning a[D]gain
CHORUS:
For[G]ever you'll be eyes of [D]blue
In the [G]circle of your [C]youth
Picking [G]every blade of [D]truth
Down the Newton [Em]road
INTERLUDE: G C G
You took your beauty and your [Em]heart of gold
[C]To the alter, to the alter[G]
Bound forever in an [Em]August vow
[C]Turning a[D]round[G]
The skies of summer shone a[Em]round your door
[C]Little children, little children[G]
Three men who couldn't [Em]love you more
[C]Turning a[D]gain
CHORUS:
For[G]ever you'll be eyes of [D]blue
In the [G]circle of your [C]youth
Picking [G]every blade of [D]truth
Down the Newton [C]road__[D]_[G]
One door opens and [Em]another closed
[C]Oh the parting, oh the parting[G]
New arrivals and a [Em]family grown
[C]Turning a[D]round[G]
Head of ribbons running [Em]down the brae
[C]In the morning, in the morning[G]
Pulling moments from the [Em]clock of faith
[C]Turning a[D]gain
CHORUS:
For[G]ever you'll be eyes of [D]blue
In the [G]circle of your [C]youth
Picking [G]every blade of [D]truth
Down the Newton [C]road__[D]_
