                          Am              C
Watching the morning come in on the land

                  G
See the moon roll over Skeabost

                  Am                C
See the young men late in the glen

                   G
All with camans in hand

          Am              
Sea winds out on the wild

C         G
Sea waves crash onto Uig

                           Am             C
See the black homes strung out in a line

                    G
Cross the island of Skye
CHORUS:
          Am                              G
I can't believe that it's taking all this time

          Dm        C                Am
I can't believe my life and my destiny

Am7
After the clans, after the clearings

       D          C      G
Here I am, recovering

                        Am             C
Should have been home before daylight

                          G
It's not easy when you're down and hungry

                              Am            C
One from the late run, rolled up in a coat

               G
I make my way across the moor

                     Am           C
For a late summer in Eighty-Four

                  G
But now there's a new day dawning

                         Am               C
I've heard the Braes men talk in Portree

              G
The news from Glendale
CHORUS:
              Am                              G
And I can't believe that it's taking all this time

          Dm        C                Am
I can't believe my life and my destiny

Am7
After the clans, after the clearings

       D          C    
Here I am, recovering

                        Am              C
Still the morning comes in on the land

                G
See the new sun red and rising

                  Am                  C
See the corn turn ripe in the fields

                      G
See the growth in the glen

                      Am            C
And McPherson's in Kilmuir tonight

                   G
What a night for a people rising

                 Am           C
And, oh god, not before time

                       G       Cmaj7   G
There's justice in our lives
