The Cutter Chords & Lyrics - Runrig

Capo 3rd fret

Intro: [G] , [D] , [Em] , [C] , [D]

When you arr[G]ived in Canada you w[D]alked the streets
Out of w[Em]ork out of money, pro[G]spects b[D]leak
Now the p[G]lane comes down from the m[D]orning sky
and you t[Em]ouch the land where the f[C]ire won't [D]die

[G]Johnny, you're h[D]ome, man
It's a l[C]ong road
you d[Em]rove us d[D]own
It's o[G]nly a m[D]oment
Since the d[C]iesels turned

[BRIDGE]
[Em]The heath flame is burning b[C]right
burning every n[Em]ight
It's winter in On[G]tari[D]o
[Em]The wheels that turned us village k[C]ids
Still carry through the h[Em]eaths
They no longer t[G]urn for y[D]ou

Lyrics

Now the blade cuts clean through the island soil
The years roll back and the world grows small
You stand on the banks in the wind and the rain
And all of your money can't hide this pain

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]

So you hold your mother and you bless the air
With the tears of the emigrant, tongue of the Gael
And the plane takes off in a clear blue sky
Life's a long lost list of last goodbyes

[CHORUS]
