Van Morrison – Tir Na Nog (Guitar)

G       G/B             Cadd9
We were standing in the kingdom

G   G/B            Cadd9
And by the mansion gate

G          G/B             Cadd9
We stood enraptured by the silence

G            G/B        Cadd9
As the birds sang their heavenly song

Cadd9     G  G/B Cadd9
In Tir Na Nog

G  G/B            Cadd9
We stopped in the church of Ireland

G   G/B           Cadd9
And prayed to our father

G   G/B            Cadd9
And climbed up the mountainside

G    G/B         Cadd9
With fire in our hearts

G      G/B            Cadd9
And we walked all the way

Cadd9     G  G/B Cadd9
To Tir Na Nog

G G/B          Cadd9
I said with my eyes

G      G/B             Cadd9
That I recognised your chin

G  G/B              Cadd9
It was my long lost friend

G  G/B                  Cadd9
To help me from another lifetime

G  G/B              Cadd9
We took each others hands

G   G/B          Cadd9
And cried like a river

G    G/B     Cadd9
When we said hello, and we walked

Cadd9     G  G/B Cadd9
To Tir Na Nog

G  G/B        Cadd9
We made a big connection

G    G/B           Cadd9
On a golden autumn day

G       G/B                    Cadd9
We were standing in the garden wet with rain

G       G/B        Cadd9
And our souls were young again

Cadd9     G  G/B Cadd9
In Tir Na Nog

G   G/B         Cadd9
And outside the storm was raging

G  G/B        Cadd9
Outside Jerusalem

G  G/B          Cadd9
We drove in our chariots of fire

G             G/B            Cadd9
Following the big sun in the west

Cadd9
Going up, going up

Cadd9     G  G/B Cadd9
To Tir Na Nog

G   G/B       Cadd9
You came into my life

G              G/B                  Cadd9
And you filled me and you filled me oh so joyous

G      G/B        Cadd9
By the clear cool crystal streams

G         G/B                  Cadd9
Where the roads were quiet and still

G      G/B            Cadd9
And we walked all the way

Cadd9     G  G/B Cadd9
To Tir Na Nog

G       G/B       Cadd9
How can we not be attached

G     G/B       Cadd9
After all we're only human

G        G/B            Cadd9
The only way then is to never come back

G        G/B           Cadd9
Except I wouldn't want that, would you

G     G/B       Cadd9
If we weren't together again

Cadd9     G  G/B Cadd9
In Tir Na Nog

Cadd9     G  G/B Cadd9
In Tir Na Nog

G     G/B    Cadd9
We've been together before

G    G/B            Cadd9
In a different incarnation

G      G/B              Cadd9
And we loved each other then as well

G      G/B         Cadd9
And we sat down in contemplation

G         G/B             Cadd9
Many many many many times you kissed mine eyes

Cadd9     G  G/B Cadd9
In Tir Na Nog

G       G/B             Cadd9
Ahhhhh, Ahhhhhh, Ahhhh, Ahhhh

G       G/B             Cadd9
Ohhhhh, Ohhhhhh, Ohhhh, Ohhhh

G         G/B            Cadd9        G
You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you
