[VERSE]
[G#m]She smiles at me
from beyond the e[E]astern sea-s[F#]hore.
[G#m]Flashing jewelled eyes,
she hoists her skirt[E]s so hi[F#]gh. [C]
[A]Nouvelle cuisine or an oy[E]ster bar
it's r[D]eally up to her[F#m] .
I'll write[D] every cheque she[E] brings to me.
[F#m]I shoot on sight
it's my Eu[D]ropean lega[E]cy.
[VERSE]
[G#m]Round the castle walls
about the Highlan[E]ds and the I[F#]slands
[G#m]the faint reminders stand.
Visitors who too[E]k a han[F#]d [C]
[A]a thousand years ago, or [E]so
stranded[D] high and dry b[F#m]y tides
washed u[D]p a new identi[E]ty.
[F#m]The channel's wide
but it's t[D]heir European [E]legacy.

[G#m] [E] [F#]
[G#m] [E] [F#] [C]
[VERSE]
[G#m]I strain my eyes
against the sou[E]thern light adv[F#]ancing.
[G#m]On whiter cliffs I'm high.
The sea birds rol[E]l and tu[F#]mble as th[C]ey fly.
[A]I hear distant mainland m[E]usic echo
in my[D] island ear[F#m]s.
My fe[D]et begin to mo[E]ve instinctively
to the w[F#m]armer bea[D]t of my Europe[E]an legacy.
[VERSE]
[G#m]She smiles at me
from beyond the[E] eastern sea-sh[F#]ore.
[G#m]Flashing jewelled eyes,
she hoists[E] her ski[F#]rts so hig[C]h.
[A]Nouvelle cuisine or an oy[E]ster bar
it's [D]really up t[F#m]o her.
I'll wri[D]te every chequ[E]e she brings to me.
[F#m]She shoots on sight
it's her E[D]uropean legacy[E] .
