G#m
She smiles at me

                 E           F#
from beyond the eastern sea-shore.

G#m
Flashing jewelled eyes,

                    E      F#  C
she hoists her skirts so high.

A                        E
Nouvelle cuisine or an oyster bar 

      D              F#m
it's really up to her.

          D                E
I'll write every cheque she brings to me.

F#m
I shoot on sight 

          D          E
it's my European legacy.
[Verse]
G#m
Round the castle walls 

                 E           F#
about the Highlands and the Islands

G#m
the faint reminders stand.

                E      F#  C
Visitors who took a hand

A                        E
a thousand years ago, or so 

        D              F#m
stranded high and dry by tides 

        D             E
washed up a new identity.

F#m
The channel's wide 

          D             E
but it's their European legacy.
[Solo] G#m E F# G#m E F# C [Verse]
G#m
I strain my eyes

               E              F#
against the southern light advancing.

G#m
On whiter cliffs I'm high.

                 E       F#        C
The sea birds roll and tumble as they fly.

A                        E
I hear distant mainland music echo

     D          F#m
in my island ears.

     D             E
My feet begin to move instinctively

        F#m      D             E
to the warmer beat of my European legacy.
