From "Fogerty's Cove" (1977) [Intro] D5 [Verse]
     D                       Am7
Cold wind on the harbour and rain on the road,

    D                        G
Wet promise of winter brings recourse to coal.

        F                       D             G
There's fire in the blood and a fog on Bras d'Or

    F          C             D
The giant will rise with the moon.
[Verse]
          D                         Am7
'Twas the same ancient fever in the Isles of the Blest,

         D                         G
That our fathers brought with them when they "went West".

         F                        D           G
It's the blood of the Druids that never will rest

    F          C             D
The giant will rise with the moon.
[Chorus]
   F          C     D     C            G
So crash the glass down! move with the tide!

      F                           G         D
Young friends and old whiskey are burning inside,

F           C   D     C            G   G/A G
Crash the glass down! Fingal will rise...

         F  D
With the moon.
[Verse]
   D                     Am7
In inclement weather the people are fey,

      D                            G
Three thousand year stories as the night slips away.

  F                      D         G
Remembering Fingal feels not far away...

    F          C             D
The giant will rise with the moon.
[Verse]
    D                                Am7
The wind's in the north, there'll be new moon tonight,

    D                    G
And we have no circle to dance in its sight.

    F                                         D               G
So light a torch, bring bring the bottle, and build the fire bright!

    F           C            D
The giant will rise with the moon.
[Chorus]
   F          C     D     C            G
So crash the glass down! move with the tide!

      F                           G         D
Young friends and old whiskey are burning inside,

F           C   D     C            G   G/A G
Crash the glass down! Fingal will rise...

         F  D
With the moon.
[Verse]
   D                       Am7
Cold wind on the harbour and rain on the road,

      D                         G
Wet promise of winter brings recourse to coal.

         F                      D             G
There's fire in the blood and a fog on Bras d'Or

    F          C             D
The giant will rise with the moon.
