Follow The Heron by Karine Polwart
Follow The Heron
Capo: 2nd fret
[Verse]
G C
The back of the winter is broken
Am D7 G
And light lingers long by the door
G C
And the seeds of the summer have spoken
Am D7 G
In gowans that bloom on the shore
[Chorus]
D Em C
By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
G Am D7
And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
Em D/F# G C
Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
Am D7 G
And we follow the heron home
[Verse]
G C
In darkness we cradled our sorrow
Am D7 G
And stoked all our fires with fear
G C
Now these bones that lie empty and hollow
Am D7 G
Are ready for gladness to cheer
[Chorus]
D Em C
By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
G Am D7
And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
Em D/F# G C
Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
Am D7 G
And we follow the heron home
[Verse]
G C
So long may you sing of the salmon
Am D7 G
And the snow-scented sounds of your home
G C
While the north wind delivers its sermon
Am D7 G
Of ice and salt water and stone
[Chorus] 2x
D Em C
By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
G Am D7
And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
Em D/F# G C
Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
Am D7 G
And we follow the heron home
[End] 4x
G C G G Am G
Badidaaadaaaaaa badidadaaandaaaaa
