Chords
I've been trying to tab a lot of Runrig songs lately so if anyone has any tab
requests get in touch.
This is the chords for the song but I've included a tab of the intro as I hear it
played. It's also played at various points in the song but you can listen for yourselves.

Am G A prairie and a wind Am Canada on the wire G D I'm trading all my fears Em C And all my desires Am G I watch your sun go down Am C D A burning amber road G D Following the ghosts Em C Wherever they go
'S chan fhaic mi cladach geal
No achadh cruithneachd 'fas
Gun sealladh mor de chradh
'S dealbh de bhas
A window on the stars
the journey of the few
Watching it all survive
It's all I can do
------
(Translation of the gaelic verse)
And I cannot see a white shore
Or a field of wheat growing
without the vision of suffering
and the picture of death
