Runrig – The Message chords

Runrig - The Message



Intro: A

AI'm going to dance you round the floor
ADrink you under the tables
          F#m Going to take that last flight home
        E                          ATo Balivanich in the month of June
     A              Go racing up the south ford
ATurning midnight in the cars
            F#mWaiting up late with the Greenock girls
       E                ASingle every song that made us


               A              EYou take your message to the waters
         A         E        AAnd you watch the ripples flow
                          DNow somewhere out on the ocean
            E                  ALies our fear should we grow old



AWe're going to lie down on the grass
AYour lipstick in the clover
           F#m          Going the marry Mary in the summertime
       E                        AThe Atlantic round our shoulders
            ASkies are dawning ound the Langass Barpa
AStopped off at the white bridge waters
           F#mIt's all crossroads lined with telegraph poles
           E                  AA rise of larksong fills the morning


               A              EYou take your message to the waters
         A         E       AAnd you watch the ripples flow
      A                   DNow somewhere out on the ocean
           E                   ALies our fear should we grow old
                A             EYou take your message to the waters
         A         E       AAnd you watch the ripples flow
      A                     DNow somewhere out on that ocean
         E                 AIt says Mary please don't go


AAnd when we've wasted all our young years
AWho's to say we never tried
         F#mTo live fast and honour our pledges
         E                             AHere we vowed to stay young till we die
AWe drank the life from the last of the bottle
AWe wrote our message out like a prayer
         F#m                   Then we threw away the message with all our hearts
         E                   A  Then we watched our lives disappear


(CHORUS)


Enjoy!
