Time and Tide

5 Apr

Campbell, Bridgegate Music

A song for Scotland, inspired by our lochside living, the changing seasons, the wildlife, the people and the community that surrounds us here.

(C) …The (Am11) sun lies (C) low (Dm7) in (Em6) the (F) even (Em6) ing (Dm7) sky

(Dm7) Wispy (Em6) bands of (Dm7) cloud drift (G7) slowly (C) by

(C) …Your (Am11) hand in (C) mine we (Dm7) watch (Em6) the (F) wild (Em6) geese (Dm7) fly

Their (Dm7) broad wings (Em6) slowly (Dm7) arch and (G7) beat the (C) sky

(C) …In (Am11) ragged (C) wavy (Dm7) lines (Em6) they (F) call (Em6) and res (Dm7) pond

(Dm7) Paired for (Em6) life they (Dm7) never (G7) break the (C) bond

Through (G11) wind and (F13) rain and (Em7sus6) time and (G11) tide

We (G11) are as (F13) one (Em7sus6) side by (G11) side

We (Am11) share this (D7) wondrous (G7) land We (Em6) are as (Dm7) one

(G7) hand in (C) hand

Come spring the meadow blooms along the shore
Through summer days swallows swoop and soar

Then autumn turns to yellow, red and gold
Till frost, and snowy winter days enfold

Now there’s a new life for you and me
Hopes and dreams and new things to be

Through wind and rain and time and tide, We are as one, side by side
We share this wondrous land, We are as one, hand in hand

Wind, rain, time, tide,
Wind, rain, time, tide,
Wind, rain, time, tide,
Wind, rain, time, tide,
We are as one, side by side
