INTRO: G  Am  G  Am

    G
I'm standing here
          Am
In a long row
G
Farewells
      Am             D
And a future hanging low
G
Wave out
               Am
In the morning grey
  G
A burning heart
           Am          D
That keeps tearing me away


CHORUS:
    G
Oh, morning tide (morning tide)
       C             D
You're taking me for all my life
G
Morning tide (morning tide)
       C           D     G   Am   G   Am
You're sailing me away


G
Precious (precious)
        Am
Morning still
   G
My wealth falls in
     Am               D
All around the island hills
G
Dying out (dying out)
           Am
Across the bay
        G
Oh, the pier runs out
        Am                D
And the Minch waves roll away


CHORUS:
    G
Oh, morning tide (morning tide)
       C             D
You're taking me for all my life
G
Morning tide (morning tide)
       C           D     
You're sailing me away


INTERLUDE:   G  Am  
                      G     Am  
          Sailing me away
                      G     Am  
          Sailing me away
                      G     Am  D
          Sailing me away
 

    G
I'm standing here
          Am
In a long row
G
Farewells
      Am             D
And a future hanging low
G
Wave out
               Am
In the morning grey
  G
A burning heart
           Am          D
That keeps tearing me away

You're taking me for all my life

Morning tide (morning tide)

You're sailing me away
