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
Enjoy!
