Spoken lyrics:


Asus2
Diardaoin, an ceathramh latha, dhan 'Ghiblein
                  Gsus2
Deagh latha eile. Air mo chois trath. Leig mi fhein

is m'athair a-mach an crodh. Tha Alasdair a'
                     Asus2
treabhadh thall taobh an iar. Dh,fhalbh sinn sios a

dh'Orasaigh, fodraigeadh nam beathaichean agus
Gsus2
Thainig sinn air ais timcheall Cleit, a' cumail suil
                       Asus 2
a-mach airson na h-uain. Tha e math a bhi beo, 
Asus2 
Tha e math a bhi beo.



A
The light is on me
A
All time is here
     G
I'm going down to Clachan
    D
To stem the rush of years
A
Big sky above me
A
Powerlines overhead
       G
I get lifted up enraptured
        D
I keep falling at your feet
Am                D
I'm looking over colourfields
Am
Past the white sands
         C        D
And our human years
G         D/F#        Em
And it's all waiting here
Am            F     C    G    A
Breaking the seed

 

CHORUS

D              Em
It's coming again
               C
Gathering the wind
               G      A     
Returning to claim a harvest
D                    Em                       
I'm lifted where I stand
                     C
On the never-ending land
                 G        A    D
I'm coming to a sense of home


Spoken verse 2
Asus2
Air an oidhche bha sluagh mor a-staigh agus bha
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/r/runrig/348350.html ]
againn ri dhol suas gu taigh Neil airson tuilleadh
              Gsus2
Sheidhrichean. Tha an teaghlach uile dhachaidh
                             Asus2
A-neisd. A' suidhe air an staidhre a coimhead air an

Uinneag. A' gheallach, an Crogaire, Loch an Aonghais.
Gsus2
Fhad's a bha Ruairidh Sheumais a' gabhail na leabhraichean.

Tha gnothaichean caran mun aon rud.



A
Wind through the barley
A
Your early dream
  G
A rising choir of birdsong
      D
Your fields of summer green
A
It's all passing over
A
I've no complaints
       G
We're just a row of unlit candles
D
Waiting at the gate of saints
Am                 D
I'm living on the borderline
Am
Between the moment
         C          D
And the shining miles
G     D/F#           Em
The far stretching stones
Am                    F   C  G  A
All the lines of the sown

D              Em
It's coming again
               C
Gathering the wind
               G      A     
Returning to claim a harvest
D                    Em                       
I'm lifted where I stand
                     C
On the never-ending land
                 G        A    D
I'm coming to a sense of home


D                     Em
The light of ancient shine
                  C
On your ordinary lives
                      G         A
We joyed went to the fires of harvest
D               Em
So open up the land
             C
Open up the sand
            G        A    D   D
Returning again in Clachan



OUTRO

D        G         Bm       A       D
Falling Down, falling down again
        G          
Falling Down again.
Bm        A                    D
Oh can't hold back the feeling


Play following chords to fade.
