Biography:
“There's a song in there somewhere," sings Dave Gunning optimistically on his seventh album We're All Leaving, but the Pictou County, Nova Scotia performer is being far too modest.
Scoring three 2010 East Coast Music Award Nominations for Songwriter, Male Solo Recording and FACTOR Recording of the Year, and recently named as a Finalist in the Great American Song Contest and International Songwriting Competition for his song, Before The Morning Sun (co-written by James Keelaghan), Gunning is on the move.

Dave Gunning - Colleen Malone
INTRO: C
F C
It's been ten years and three since I first went to sea
F C G
Since I've sailed from old Ireland and home
C F C
But those hills lush and green were a part of my dream
F G C
When I dreamed of my Colleen Malone
F C
On the day I returned to my sorrow I learned
F C G
That the angels had called her away
C F C
To a grave on a hill overlooking the mill
F G C
That's the place where she's sleeping today
CHORUS:
G F C
As the soft breezes blow, through the meadow I go
F C G
Past the mill with the moss covered stone
F C
Up the pathway I climb, through the woods and the vines
F G C
To be with my Colleen Malone
F C
She was faithful each day as I sailed far away
F C G
There was no one but me that she loved
C F C
And I remember those eyes, soft and blue as the skies
F G C
And her heart was as pure as a dove
CHORUS:
G F C
As the soft breezes blow, through the meadow I go
F C G
Past the mill with the moss covered stone
F C
Up the pathway I climb, through the woods and the vines
F G C
To be with my Colleen Malone
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C F C G C F C F G C
F C
All the years of my life I will not take a wife
F C G
I will live in this valley alone
C F C
Planting flowers around in the soft gentle ground
F G C
That's holding my Colleen Malone
CHORUS:
G F C
As the soft breezes blow, through the meadow I go
F C G
Past the mill with the moss covered stone
F C
Up the pathway I climb, through the woods and the vines
F G C
To be with my Colleen Malone
F C
Up the pathway I climb, through the woods and the vines
F G C
To be with my Colleen Malone
