nd Fret 



Intro: G  Am  G  Am 

    G 
I'm standing here 
          Am 
In a long row 
G 
Farewells 
      Am             D 
And a future hanging low 
G 
Wave out 
               Am 
In the morning grey 
  G 
A burning heart 
           Am          D 
That keeps tearing me away 


    G 
Oh, morning tide (morning tide) 
       C             D 
You're taking me for all my life 
G 
Morning tide (morning tide) 
       C           D     G   Am   G   Am 
You're sailing me away 


G 
Precious (precious) 
        Am 
Morning still 
   G 
My wealth falls in 
     Am               D 
All around the island hills 
G 
Dying out (dying out) 
           Am 
Across the bay 
        G 
Oh, the pier runs out 
        Am                D 
And the Minch waves roll away 


    G 
Oh, morning tide (morning tide) 
       C             D 
You're taking me for all my life 
G 
Morning tide (morning tide) 
       C           D      
You're sailing me away 


INTERLUDE:   G  Am   
                      G     Am   
          Sailing me away 
                      G     Am   
          Sailing me away 
                      G     Am  D 
          Sailing me away 
  

    G 
I'm standing here 
          Am 
In a long row 
G 
Farewells 
      Am             D 
And a future hanging low 
G 
Wave out 
               Am 
In the morning grey 
  G 
A burning heart 
           Am          D 
That keeps tearing me away
