Runrig - The Message



Intro: A

A
I'm going to dance you round the floor
A
Drink you under the tables
          F#m 
Going to take that last flight home
        E                          A
To Balivanich in the month of June
     A              
Go racing up the south ford
A
Turning midnight in the cars
            F#m
Waiting up late with the Greenock girls
       E                A
Single every song that made us


               A              E
You take your message to the waters
         A         E        A
And you watch the ripples flow
                          D
Now somewhere out on the ocean
            E                  A
Lies our fear should we grow old

A
We're going to lie down on the grass
A
Your lipstick in the clover
           F#m          
Going the marry Mary in the summertime
       E                        A
The Atlantic round our shoulders
            A
Skies are dawning ound the Langass Barpa
A
Stopped off at the white bridge waters
           F#m
It's all crossroads lined with telegraph poles
           E                  A
A rise of larksong fills the morning


               A              E
You take your message to the waters
         A         E       A
And you watch the ripples flow
      A                   D
Now somewhere out on the ocean
           E                   A
Lies our fear should we grow old
                A             E
You take your message to the waters
         A         E       A
And you watch the ripples flow
      A                     D
Now somewhere out on that ocean
         E                 A
It says Mary please don't go


A
And when we've wasted all our young years
A
Who's to say we never tried
         F#m
To live fast and honour our pledges
         E                             A
Here we vowed to stay young till we die
A
We drank the life from the last of the bottle
A
We 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!
