This Darkest Winter Chords & Lyrics - Runrig

CAPO: 3rd Fret

INTRO: (one fast lick 1st then...)
[Em] [C] [G] [D] (4x) [Em]

On a long dark loch, on a [G]Uist moor
Be[D]fore the winter [Em]turned
[G]We watched the circle [D]round the moon
The [C]storm clouds gathered [Em]round

So I turned to you, but [G]you were gone
So I [D]turned for home a[Em]lone
Over [G]last year's rotting [D]corn I walked
Where the [C]harvest winds had [Em]blown

[CHORUS]
The [G]Blinding [D]lines have [C]turned a[G]way
Shadows [D]from your [Em]door
And [G]my worn [D]heart is [C]young to[G]day
This [D]darkest winter [Em]gone

INTERLUDE: (one fast lick 1st then...)
[Em] [C] [G] [D] (4x) [Em]

Where the darkness whines on an [G]eerie wind
In the [D]hour before the [Em]dawn
We [G]scanned this wasted [D]land for life
All seemed [C]void and without [Em]form

So I turned to you, but [G]you were gone
So I [D]stood and watched a[Em]lone
Where the [G]doughty clouds of [D]first light formed
Their [C]shapes across the [Em]soul

[CHORUS]
The [G]Blinding [D]lines have [C]turned a[G]way
Shadows [D]from your [Em]door
And [G]my worn [D]heart is [C]young to[G]day
This [D]darkest winter [Em]gone [F#m] [G] [A] [Em] [F#m] [G] [A]

INTERLUDE: (two fast licks 1st then...)
[Em] [C] [G] [D] (4x)

So [Em]I turned my collar [G]to the wind
And I [D]asked myself in [Em]vain
Did I [G]walk out here with [D]you today
Or[C] did I come a[Em]lone?

But then I saw a [G]distant sight
A [D]heart behind the [Em]grey
Come [G]shining through the [D]darkest sky
Es[C]tablishing my [Em]way

[CHORUS]
The [G]Blinding [D]lines have [C]turned a[G]way
Shadows [D]from your [Em]door
But [G]my worn [D]heart is [C]young to[G]day
This [D]darkest winter [G]gone

[CHORUS]
The [G]Blinding [D]lines have [C]turned a[G]way
Shadows [D]from your [Em]door
But [G]my worn [D]heart is [C]young to[G]day
This [D]darkest winter [Em]gone

OUTRO: (## fade to end ##))
[Em] [C] (4x)
