Introduction - C, G, F, G
C
As you made your way up the hill,
G
No emotion could lay still.
F
Brindisi, the mighty bay,
G
And Campbell leading him all the way.
C G
For the brave young man from Haddington,
F G
With the will to win of a champion
F
For all those left along the way,
G
We’ll never forget that magic day.
F
When Every Scotsman in the crowd,
C AM
Brought you home so proud,
Every stride a memory,
G
Special place in history.
F
When our journey begins we do not know,
C AM
Which road to take, where do we go,
C G
But with boots of shining leather,
C
You guided us.
C G
With Lucinda and Scu you were part of the team,
F G
Belief in you was clear to see.
C G
A caring soul with a roving eye,
F G
To your friends and the ladies – a sweet sweet guy.
C G
And in your kilt you shown your Scottish pride,
F G
With the heart of a lion deep inside.
F
Every moment - a new story,
G
That bright March day - your crowning glory.
