Coronach

Am   G   F D Am

[Verse 1]
Am              G        Asus2
Grey the mist - cold the dawn.
Am                C         G
Cruel the sea and stern the shore.
Am                C        Fmaj7
Brave the man who sets his 
      G   C    C Am G
course for Albion.

Am               G         Asus2
Sweet the rose - sharp the thorn.
Am                C         G
Meek the soil and proud the corn.

Am                    G        Fmaj7
Blessed the lamb that would be born
    G       F         C        D
within this green and pleasant land.

[Chorus]
           Am                      G
Hi-O-Ran-I-O            Hi-O-Ran-I-O

Hi-O-Ran-I-O            Oh  Oh  Oh

[Verse 2]
C     F      G
Brown furrow shine
  C         F           G
beneath the rain washed blue.

Em     Am      Dm           Bb  
Bright crystal streams from 
  F         G
eagle mountains born.
Em Am       D                   
Fortune has smiled on those who 
Fmaj7 G
wake anew,
    Am               C      Fmaj7
Within this fortress nature built
    C        Fmaj7   G   C Am G
 to stay the hand of war.

Am              G        Asus2
With the wind - from the east
Am                C         G
came the first of those who tread.

 Am                   G         
Upon this stone, this throne of 
Fmaj7
kings,
     G           F     C   D
this realm, this new Jerusalem.

[Chorus]
           Am                      G
Hi-O-Ran-I-O            Hi-O-Ran-I-O
           F            D       Am
Hi-O-Ran-I-O            Oh  Oh  Oh

Am               G
   Hi-O-Ran-I-O    Hi-O-Ran-I-O
F                  D       Am
   Hi-O-Ran-I-O    Oh  Oh  Oh
