Cullodens Harvest

Em  D  Em  D  C  D  C  D  (2x)

[Chorus]
Em       D           C     Bm
Cold the wind on the moors blow
Em       D       C    Bm
Warm the enemy's fire glows
G         Am      C       Em
Black the harvest of Culloden
C        Bm       C     Em
Pain and fear and death grow


[Verse 1]
      C           D               
'Twas love of our prince drove us 
C         G
on to Drumossie
       Em           Bm           
But in scarcely the time that it 
C
takes me to tell
                  D          
The flower of our country lay 
 C              G
scorched by an army
   Em           Bm         C
As ruthless and red as the embers of
 hell


[Chorus]
Em       D           C     Bm
Cold the wind on the moors blow
Em       D       C    Bm
Warm the enemy's fire glows

[Verse 2]
    C            D           C   
Red Campbell the Fox did the work
        G
 of the English
   Em        Bm         C
MacDonald in anger, did no work at 
all
                D             
With musket and cannon 'gainst 
 C          G
honour and courage
      Em          Bm               
The invader's men stood, while our 
C
clansmen did fall


[Chorus]

Cold the wind on the moors blow
Em       D       C    Bm

[Verse 3]
    C           D            C   
Now mothers and children are left
          G
 to their weeping
     Em       Bm        C
With only the memory of father and 
son
                    D             
Turned out of their homes to make 
C           G
shelter for strangers
    Em          Bm            C
The blackest of hours on this land 
has begun


[Chorus]
Em       D           C     Bm
Cold the wind on the moors blow
Em       D       C    Bm
Warm the enemy's fire glows
G         Am      C       Em
Black the harvest of Culloden
C        Bm       C     Em
Pain and fear and death grow
