Biography:
Capercaillie is a folk band founded in Oban, Scotland in the 1980s by Donald Shaw and fronted by Karen Matheson. They recorded their first album, Cascade, in 1984. Their 1992 EP Coisich, a Rùin was the first ever Scottish Gaelic language record to reach the UK Top 40 singles chart. They have also pioneered the integration of divergent styles, including some electronics and African rhythms, into their music, though it is still primarily Scottish folk music.

[Intro]
G C (4x)
[Verse 1]

Let's go up the hillside to the highest ridge of stone

As the evening shadows thunder a cloak around the world

We remember all the mornings at the heart of it all
[Chorus]

At the heart of it all is a calling to this land

In the words of our salvation is a song for the common man
