Runrig - The Message
Intro: A
A
I'm going to dance you round the floor
A
Drink you under the tables
F#m
Going to take that last flight home
E A
To Balivanich in the month of June
A
Go racing up the south ford
A
Turning midnight in the cars
F#m
Waiting up late with the Greenock girls
E A
Single every song that made us
A E
You take your message to the waters
A E A
And you watch the ripples flow
D
Now somewhere out on the ocean
E A
Lies our fear should we grow old
A
We're going to lie down on the grass
A
Your lipstick in the clover
F#m
Going the marry Mary in the summertime
E A
The Atlantic round our shoulders
A
Skies are dawning ound the Langass Barpa
A
Stopped off at the white bridge waters
F#m
It's all crossroads lined with telegraph poles
E A
A rise of larksong fills the morning
A E
You take your message to the waters
A E A
And you watch the ripples flow
A D
Now somewhere out on the ocean
E A
Lies our fear should we grow old
A E
You take your message to the waters
A E A
And you watch the ripples flow
A D
Now somewhere out on that ocean
E A
It says Mary please don't go
A
And when we've wasted all our young years
A
Who's to say we never tried
F#m
To live fast and honour our pledges
E A
Here we vowed to stay young till we die
A
We drank the life from the last of the bottle
A
We wrote our message out like a prayer
F#m
Then we threw away the message with all our hearts
E A
Then we watched our lives disappear
(CHORUS)
Enjoy!
