Runrig – This Beautiful Pain (Ukulele)

F       G         F  
Day was young and desire was stirred

F          G        F
Summer was all but gone

F          G               F 
Light was fading from the side of your face

F       G           F
Sinking low in the corn

            Am
All that’s constant and wise

         F
I still see in your eyes

       F           G            F    
it was always this way from the start

       Am            
Right here where I stand

       F
on the last of the land

    G     F                   F    
But you're still breaking the heart

F         G               F  
Now all I have is rushing right through my hands

F       G        F 
Sailing over the seas

F          G                   F
Down that tide where fresh and salt combine

F         G          F
all victories are released

        Am
We who wrestle the years

       F
have traded our fears

      F                G        F
for a glimpse of ecstasy in the dark

        Am       
Turning ice in the fire

           F
but we’re still denied

     G    F                   F      
But you’re still breaking the heart

Am                          F            
The skies turn red without failure

                 F           G              Am
they held their promise and dread till the last

        G                      Am
You put all of my youth in my future

            F                  G 
You put my future back into my past

    F       G                 F 
So shine a light and shine it brightly now

     F      G              F     
You know it all takes its course

     F      G               F
and all the many ways I’ve tried so hard

    F          G      F
to reach this potent source

       Am
On the day behind time

  F
across the divide

           F             G            Am
along the cord came all light out of dark

    F                       Am
now I stand amaze in this beautiful pain

     G    F                   F
but you’re still breaking the heart
