Runrig - The Message
Intro: A
[A]I'm going to dance you round the floor
[A]Drink you under the tables
Going to t[F#m]ake that last flight home
To Baliv[E]anich in the month of June[A]
Go ra[A]cing up the south ford
[A]Turning midnight in the cars
Waiting up l[F#m]ate with the Greenock girls
Single [E]every song that m[A]ade us
You take your m[A]essage to the w[E]aters
And you w[A]atch the r[E]ipples fl[A]ow
Now somewhere out on the o[D]cean
Lies our fea[E]r should we grow ol[A]d
[A]We're going to lie down on the grass
[A]Your lipstick in the clover
Going the m[F#m]arry Mary in the summertime
The Atl[E]antic round our shoulders[A]
Skies are da[A]wning ound the Langass Barpa
[A]Stopped off at the white bridge waters
It's all cr[F#m]ossroads lined with telegraph poles
A rise of l[E]arksong fills the m[A]orning
You take your m[A]essage to the w[E]aters
And you w[A]atch the r[E]ipples f[A]low
Now so[A]mewhere out on the o[D]cean
Lies our fe[E]ar should we grow ol[A]d
You take your me[A]ssage to the w[E]aters
And you w[A]atch the r[E]ipples f[A]low
Now so[A]mewhere out on that oc[D]ean
It says M[E]ary please don't g[A]o
[A]And when we've wasted all our young years
[A]Who's to say we never tried
To live f[F#m]ast and honour our pledges
Here we v[E]owed to stay young till we die[A]
[A]We drank the life from the last of the bottle
[A]We wrote our message out like a prayer
Then we t[F#m]hrew away the message with all our hearts
Then we w[E]atched our lives dis[A]appear
(CHORUS)
Enjoy!
