Misc Traditional – Uist Tramping Song (Ukulele)

C
Come along, Come along, let us foot it out together,

     Am           C           F              G
Come along, Come along, be it fair or stormy weather.

         F               C               Am            F
With the hills of home before us and the purple of the heather,

       C             Am           F           C
Let us sing in happy chorus come along! come along!

C
So gaily sings the lark and the sky is awake,

         Am           C               F              G
With the promise of a new day for the road we gladly take.

        F                C               Am              F
So it's heel and toe and forward singing fairwell to the town,

        C             Am               F        C
And the welcome that awaits us ere the sun goes down.

C
Come along, Come along, let us foot it out together,

     Am           C           F              G
Come along, Come along, be it fair or stormy weather.

         F               C               Am            F
With the hills of home before us and the purple of the heather,

       C             Am           F           C
Let us sing in happy chorus come along! come along!

         C
It's the call of sea and shore; its the tang of bog and peat,

        Am                 C                F            G
And the scent of briar and Myrtle that puts magic in our feet.

        F          C             Am           F
So it's on we go rejoicing, over bracken over stile,

         C               Am               F         C
and it's soon we will be tramping out the last long mile.

C
Come along, Come along, let us foot it out together,

     Am           C           F              G
Come along, Come along, be it fair or stormy weather.

         F               C               Am            F
With the hills of home before us and the purple of the heather,

       C             Am           F           C
Let us sing in happy chorus come along! come along!
