Eternity - Words and Music by Dougie MacLean E|-------------------------------- E|------------|Most, if not all, of Dougie's songs are played in open tunings on the guitar. I have transcribed this, along with a few more of his songs, in standard tuning to allow for easier learning. [Intro] A7sus4 A A7sus4 A x2 [Verse]A7sus4 A You're a stranger to these hillsA7sus4 A and you've come up here to end your daysF C And you love our running riversG and you love our quaint little Highland waysA7sus4 A You sold your house in the city -A7sus4 you put it on the market and youA did so goodF C Now you've bought a little pieceG of something that you don't understand and you've misunderstood [Chorus]Am F G But I'll tell you about the land that you play onAm F G What you've gained is our ultimate lossAm F G I'll tell you about the soil you decay onAm I'll hold it up to you like theF Am Fiery Cross [Verse]A7sus4 A You love the view from yourA7sus4 A window and you'd go out more but it always rainsContinúa después del anuncioF C You don't think much of the musicG or the tears in the old man's sad refrainsA7sus4 A You've bought yourself miles ofA7sus4 tartan and you wear it round yourA middle and you wear it on your headF C You stand there a proud believerG in a vision of the truth that's long gone dead [Chorus]Am F G But I'll tell you about the land that you play onAm F G What you've gained is our ultimate lossAm F G I'll tell you about the soil you decay onAm I'll hold it up to you like theF Am Fiery Cross [Bridge] (SPOKEN VOICEOVER - Chord places as suggestion if you wish to sing this verse)Dm Am Once these glens were full ofDm people and the songs and stories ofAm their fathers of oldDm Am And there was peace and plentyDm F and a horn of whiskey when the weather grew coldDm Am Then along came the greatDm improvers and they cleaned it upAm like only imperials couldDm They lined them up forAm Dm transportation to the land of theF brave and the free and the good [Verse]A7sus4 A Look to the south I tell you thatA7sus4 A the black man has it cruel and hardF C But you don't have to look anyG further that the rumble of stones in our own backyardA7sus4 A A7sus4 And Oh sad the day and allA that's left are a fading fewF C Yes Sir you may have paid goodG money for it but no it'll never be-long to you [Chorus]Am F G But I'll tell you about the land that you play onAm F G What you've gained is our ultimate lossAm F G I'll tell you about the soil you decay onAm I'll hold it up to you like theF Am Fiery CrossAm F G But I'll tell you about the land that you play onAm F G What you've gained is our ultimate lossAm F G I'll tell you about the soil you decay onAm I'll hold it up to you like theF Am Fiery Cross
