Stornoway - A belated invite to eternity

^DIt was lat^Ge last nigh^F#mt And ^Aall the band were ^Dsleeping It was ^Glate last ^F#mnight ^{A D}I was list^Gening to ^F#m To the ^Agenerators h^Dumming To the ^Gtent-zipping ^F#mdrunk Quipping, ^Aguy-rope tripping

^DAnd in the ^Ggathering ^F#mdew I was ^Alucid as a ^Dfloodlight I was ^Gthinking of ^F#myou ^{A D}But now I'm ^Gback here ^F#mbefore you You can ^Asee me shaking^D Cos in that ^F#mmoment I k^Anew I just ^Aknew, I just ^Aknew, I just ^Aknew

^DForty ^Gseasons have ^F#mflown Since I ^Afirst sat down bes^Dide you In a ^Gcrowd on our ^F#mown ^A And ^Dhow one ^Gperson could ^F#mthrill me Occu^A7py me and fulf^Dil me I could ^Gnever have ^F#mknown I could ^Anever ^Ahave ^Aknown

^GHow in the first of our ^Aautumns We'd be f^A7alling so ^Emsteeply We could share so com^Apletely ^GHow in the third of our ^Asummers When you f^A7irst tried to ^Emleave me You could cut me so ^Adeeply I could ^A7never have ^A7known

^DAnd on my ^Daugwilderness ^Djourneys With your ^Daugcompass still ^Gin me All the ^Gaugshelters were ^Dempty Through the ^Dauglongest of ^Dwinters When I ^Daugcalled you down^Griver But you ^Gauggave me no ^Ganswer And I ^Afeared for my ^Bmmind Until the ^Gfirst signs of ^Bmspringtime You were ^Gsick and I ^Bmsaw you And how ^Amuch you'd missed me ^EmNow in our ^Geleventh ^Emautumn You are ^Gblonde from the ^Emsummer And I'm ^Gback here bef^Aore you And you ^A7see me ^Ashaking

^GWill you go with me, my ^Alove? From here together ^EmFrom this quiet rented ^Ahouse ^GWill you go with me, my ^Alove?

^EmEvery rise and every ^Aslow decli^A7ne ^EmWill you go with ^Bmme Through ^F#mdream and fanta^Emsy?

^GThrough the op^Aen ^Bmfields And ^F#mtangled vall^Emeys? ^GWill you go with ^Dme Through ^F#mgrief and ecsta^Emsy? ^GAnd every shade ^Abe-^Bmtween The ^F#mcold morning ^Emstars And the ^Adeep ^A7blue ^Gsea ^Bm
