The Skye Boat Song

D         Bm/F#      G          A
Sing me a song of a lass that is gone

Say could that lass be I?
D              D
Merry of soul, she sailed on a day
D               D   F#m/B
Over the sea to Skye

Bm               Em
Mull was astern, Rùm on the port
Bm          G         F#m Bm
Eigg on the starboard bow
Bm             F#m
Glory of youth glowed in her soul
G                   Bm   A
Where is that glory now?

Bm            Em
Give me again all that was there
Bm          G        F#m
Give me the sun that shone
Bm                F#m
Give me the eyes, give me the soul
G           Em          Bm    A
Give me the lass that's gone

Billow and breeze, islands and seas
Bm                    G  A
Mountains of rain and sun
Bm                 Em
All that was good, all that was fair

All that was me is gone
