_ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ When the cuckoo [G] is calling [C] over _ [E] woodland and valley
[Em] _
_ [Am] And the churn of [G] the swan o [C]'erflies over [G] our _ bay
_ [Am] Then it's longing [G] I'll be [C] for the land of [Em] my father _
_ [F] Where burnt and [C] black waters [Gm] sweep down to [A] Loch _ [Am] _ Ness
A home I [Gm] have made [C] in the land of the [Em] stranger _ _
_ [A] And it's many years, [G] long [C] years since I've left Derry [G]
Cave
_ _ _ [Am] Still I dream of [Gm] the blue man [C] and the glens of old [Em] _ _ _
Ireland
[F] Where burnt and [C] black [Gm] waters sweep down to [Am] Loch Ness _ _ _ _
_ _ _ And it's tonight [G] must start [C] and this [D] is my [Em] last journey _
For [A] my [D] eyes they [G] broked in [C] my hair [G] sparse and grey
_ _ And [Am] it's soon [D] I [G] must follow [C] the turn on the [Em] swallow _ _
_ [F] Where burnt and [C] black waters [G] sweep down to [A] Loch Ness
[Am] _ _ I [Em] long for to [G] see the [C] dark waters of [Em] Loch Ness
And [A] I long for to [G]
gaze on [C] sleep-guarded [G] young grey
[C] _ [G] And [Am] I long for [G] to follow [C] the turn on [Em] the swallow _ _
_ [C] Where [F] burnt _ [C] _
and black waters [G] sweep down to [Am] Loch Ness _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ [Gm] _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] And when I return [C] [F] to my native [G] _ land _
In [Am] the spring I will [G]
hear the [Em] cuckoo sing one [F] Loch Ness
_ _ _ [Dm] And I'll be out there waiting [C] [F] for the turn on the [G] _ swallow _
_ [F] Where burnt [C] and black waters [G] sweep down to [Am] Loch Ness
_ And all I ask is [G] a care [C] in the land [G] of [Em] my _ father
_ [F] Where burnt and [C] black waters [G] sweep down [A] to Loch Ness _ _ _ _
