The Corries – Uist Tramping Song (Guitar)

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

     Em           G           C              D
Come along, Come along, be it fair or stormy weather.

         C               G               Em            C
With the hills of home before us and the purple of the heather,

      G             Em      C   G      G
We'll sing in happy chorus come along!

G
Oh now gay sings the lark and the sky is awake,

         Em             G          C              D
With the promise of the day as the road we gladly take.

      C                G               Em              C
 it's heel and toe and forward bidding fairwell to the town,

        G             Em               C        G
And the welcome that awaits us ere the sun goes down.

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

     Em           G           C              D
Come along, Come along, be it fair or stormy weather.

         C               G               Em            C
With the hills of home before us and the purple of the heather,

       G           Em      C     G
We'll sing in happy chorus come along!

         G
It's the smell of sea and shore; its the tang of bog and peat,

        Em                 G                C             D
And the scent of briar and Myrtle that puts magic in your feet.

   C          G               Em           C
So home we go rejoicing, over bracken over stile,

    G               Em               C         G
and soon we will be footing out that last long mile.

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

     Em           G           C              D
Come along, Come along, be it fair or stormy weather.

         C               G               Em            C
With the hills of home before us and the purple of the heather,

       G             Em     C     G
Let us sing in happy chorus come along!
