Battlefield Band (Alistair Russell)

#From: not-for-mail@rubb.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de (luebbdbi@rubb.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de)
#Though nobody requested it, here is a _new_ song of the Scottish
#Battlefield-Band. The guitar-player Alistair Russell told me the
#chord on their last concert in Germany last week.
#Contact me if you have some other Battlefield-Songs or Brian McNeill-Songs
#or if you want some more.
#Capo: 1. fret
From  Em Barra down to  D  Biscay and from  C Shetland to  Bm Mayo
It's  Em miles and miles of  D rocky road which C ever way you  D go
But a  G tune so sweet with a  D driving beat will  C follow you  Bm around
As the  Em western  D shores u C nite to  D make that  G wild and  D joyful  G sound
Chorus
A  G sound that will get you  D on your feet
No  C matter where you  Bm roam
Wher G ever you hear that  D sound so sweet
You can  G call that  D place your  G home
These  Em are rare old times  D around the world from the  C west unto the  Bm east
Should we  Em laugh or  D should we cry and  C will we live in  D peace
Back home  G the change is  D slow to come as we  C wait for the dawning  Bm light
So it's  Em up the  D pipes and  C beat the  D drums to  G see us  D through the  G night
We've  Em travelled far and  D wandered wide  C Alaska to Hong  Bm Kong
And a  Em welcome waits for  D all who hear and  C can't be sad for  D long
It's a  G cold hard heart that  D can't resist this  C music and this  Bm song
In a  Em mighty  D crowd of  C dancing  D feet that's  G where we  D all
G belong
