Verse 1

C                        Cadd9 C
It's a cold heart that grieves me
   F            G
As cool as the dawn
     C                Cadd9 C
I'm glad that you're smiling
    F               G
And sad that you've gone
   C          Cadd9 C       F         G
I couldn't contain all the love in my heart
     C          Cadd9 C     F         G
So I took all my senses and tore them apart

Chorus

F
The bay light that guides me
    G7
And lead me astray
      C            Cadd9 C
Now I dance in the moonlight
       F     G          C     Cadd9 C  F  G
As it shines upon Clew Bay

Verse 2

C                Cadd9 C
So I followed my shadow
F           G
Down to the quay
        C          Cadd9 C
Where I spun you a promise
     F          G
That was not to be
     C           Cadd9 C
The mountains my saviour
    F             G
My conscience I climb
C              Cadd9 C
Guilt drags me back
   F           G
to rest in the tide

Chorus

The bay light that guides MMe

And lead me astray

As it shines upon Clew Bay

I set our foRR home
      F         G
And I go it alone
C              Cadd9 C
Drink liKKe a fish
    F            G
And I float like a stone
C              Cadd9 C
I'd die in the arms of 
    F           G
the mud and the sAAnd
C               Cadd9 C
Tomorrow is new year

The woRRld we have planned

I said sail upon tears
F   G      C
Now I must sleep
