Ellan Vannin

C             F
When the summer day is over
         C          G7
Its busy cares have flown
       C               F
I will sit beneath the starlight
       C     G7    C
With a weary heart alone.

        G7           C
Then it rises like a vision
          F                    G7
Sparkling bright it shines for me
   C              F
My own dear Ellan Vannin
Continues after the ad
         C           G7     C
With its green hills by the sea.

       C              F
Let me hear the ocean murmur
       C                 G7
Let me watch your stormy sky
     C                 F
Then above the emerald waters
          C         G7     C
Sings the sea-eagle as she flies.

     G7             C
Then arising like a vision
          F                    G7
Sparkling bright it shines for me
   C              F
My own dear Ellan Vannin
         C           G7     C
With its green hills by the sea.

       C               F
And in all my times of sorrow
            C      G7
And on some lonely shore
        C             F
I'll go back to Ellan Vannin
      C         G7        C
To my childhood days once more.
