Slan Abhaile Lyrics And Chords, Tommy Sands
This version from his album ‘To Shorten The Winter’ (use capo on 3rd fret)
Intro: Instrumental chorus
I still can (G)see you in the morning (A)sun,
Your (D)laughing eyes are (A)calling
Like the (D)morning when the (G)world be(A7)gun,
And (D)love was slowly (A)daw(D)ning
How each (G)day was but a (A)moment long
Now the (G)moment is for(A)ever
As we (D)sat and watched the (G)sun go (A7)down
We (D)dreamed about to(A)mor(D)row –A7
Chorus
(D)Slan A(Bm)bhaile, (A)Slan A(D)bhaile
(G)May your dreams come (A)true
(D)Slan A(Bm)bhaile, (A)Slan A(D)bhaile
(A)I’ll re(A7)member (D)you
A-G-A-D-D
And in the (G)darkness of the troubled (A)time
When (D)lonely hearts were (A)grieving
It was (D)comfort to a (G)troubled (A7)mind
Your (D)songs love and (A)free(D)dom
Only (G)love can let me (A)set you free
It (G)knows no rhyme nor (A)reason
But you’ll (D)never know how (G)much you (A7)mean
To the (D)ones you’re (A)lea(D)ving –A7
Chorus
A-G-A-D-D
So come and (G)hold me only one more (A)time
The (D)time for talk is (A)over
And there’s (D)nothing more that (G)I could (A7)say
Would (D)make you linger (A)lon(D)ger
But the (G)party’s coming (A)to an end
It (G)makes the heart grow (A)fonder
May good (D)fortune always (G)be your (A7)friend
And (D)bless the road you (A)wan(D)der –A7
