Intro
A#7sus4 A# A7sus4 A x2
[Verse]
A#7sus4 A# A7sus4 A
You're a stranger to these hills and you've come up here to end your days
F# C# G#
And you love our running rivers and you love our quaint little Highland ways
A#7sus4 A# A7sus4 A
You sold your house in the city - you put it on the market and you did so good
F# C# G#
Now you've bought a little piece of something that you don't understand and you've misunderstood
[Chorus]
A#m F# G#
But I'll tell you about the land that you play on
A#m F# G#
What you've gained is our ultimate loss
A#m F# G#
I'll tell you about the soil you decay on
A#m F# A#m
I'll hold it up to you like the Fiery Cross
[Verse]
A#7sus4 A# A7sus4 A
You love the view from your window and you'd go out more but it always rains
F# C# G#
You don't think much of the music or the tears in the old man's sad refrains
A#7sus4 A# A7sus4 A
You've bought yourself miles of tartan and you wear it round your middle and you wear it on your head
F# C# G#
You stand there a proud believer in a vision of the truth that's long gone dead
[Chorus]
A#m F# G#
But I'll tell you about the land that you play on
A#m F# G#
What you've gained is our ultimate loss
A#m F# G#
I'll tell you about the soil you decay on
A#m F# A#m
I'll hold it up to you like the Fiery Cross
[Bridge]
(SPOKEN VOICEOVER - Chord places as suggestion if you wish to sing this verse)
D#m A#m D#m A#m
Once these glens were full of people and the songs and stories of their fathers of old
D#m A#m D#m F#
And there was peace and plenty and a horn of whiskey when the weather grew cold
D#m A#m D#m A#m
Then along came the great improvers and they cleaned it up like only imperials could
D#m A#m D#m F#
They lined them up for transportation to the land of the brave and the free and the good
[Verse]
A#7sus4 A# A7sus4 A
Look to the south I tell you that the black man has it cruel and hard
F# C# G#
But you don't have to look any further that the rumble of stones in our own backyard
A#7sus4 A# A7sus4 A
And Oh sad the day and all that's left are a fading few
F# C# G#
Yes Sir you may have paid good money for it but no it'll never be-long to you
[Chorus]
A#m F# G#
But I'll tell you about the land that you play on
A#m F# G#
What you've gained is our ultimate loss
A#m F# G#
I'll tell you about the soil you decay on
A#m F# A#m
I'll hold it up to you like the Fiery Cross
A#m F# G#
But I'll tell you about the land that you play on
A#m F# G#
What you've gained is our ultimate loss
A#m F# G#
I'll tell you about the soil you decay on
A#m F# A#m
I'll hold it up to you like the Fiery Cross
