ISLE OF ISLAY            Donovan Leitch - arr. Fox & Luckley

Intro:  Am G Am G Am C Am C Em D Am G Am G

Am                            F
How high the gulls fly o'er Islay,
    Am                            G    F G
And how sad the farm lad, deep in play.
F           G             Am   G Am G
Felt like a grain of your sand.


How well the sheep's bell music makes
Roving the cliffs where fancy takes.
Felt like a tide left me here.

(repeat intro)


How blest the forest with birds' song
And how neat the cut peat laid so long.
Felt like a seed on your land.

And how high the gulls fly o'er Islay,
And how sad the farm lad deep in play.
Felt like a seed on your land,
F           G             Am
Felt like a grain of your sand,
F           G            Am    G
Felt like a tide left me here...

(Repeat intro, end)
