Runrig - Rocket to the Moon
Capo on 4th fret
Intro: G, G
GHere hangs an Dopen lGandscape
GA wild and hDuge frontEmier
GFrom a harsh and a bDarren wCastelaGnd
GThrough the grave Dto the promised fGield
GYou came, you tDrapped, you cGharted
GYou laid the railroads Dand the schEmemes
GAnd you tamed this lDand by eCnterprGise
GAnd by the poDwer of your dreGams
But you mEmade this Clan gDreat
And you mGade this nation bCloom
And you rGose
With your people through the nCew world
Like a rDocket to the mGoon
Bridge:
GOh Cho Goh
From the olden coasts of Ireland
From the Hebridean shores
With the forgotten chosen ones
Running from Europe in droves
(Chorus)
There's a town in Manitoba
They say the windows touch the sky
But across the brine the shipyards close
In this garden flowers die
Still the homelands divide us
Like your blood red brothers of the plains
But where they grieve a candle still burns
A prayer from a flicker to a flame
