[Verse]
Am
Bring to me the morning
And the dawning of the day
F C
Speed up the sun and forward turn
Am Em
The clocks that slow our way
Am
Bring down the moon and shining stars
And hold the night time long
F C
Wake up the larks and bittern, start
Am Em Am
To sing tomorrow's song
[Verse]
Am
Get the ferry, set for sea
Am
As fast as can be done
F C
Let go the ropes and free our hopes
Am Em
Of western skies to come
Am
The rising sun to starboard
As the boat leaves Oban Bay
F C
Our homeland dreams return in streams
Am Em Am
And fill the dawning day
[Chorus]
C
For I want to go
Am
Where the great Atlantic roars
F C
From the cliffs of Kennavara
Dm G
To majestic Skerryvore
C
And breathe again the air
Am
My island body craves
F C
And feel again the freedom
G C
Of the land below the waves
[Verse]
Am
Like barley in the wind
Am
We've been scattered far and thin
F C
From the cruelty of the Clearance
Am Em
To the pressures we live in
Am
No matter where we roam
Over land or over foam
F C
The island pulls the children
Am Em Am
Of the barley to come home
[Verse]
Am
See Ben Hynish and Ben Hough
Am
And the early morning glow
F C
Then houses rising from the sea
Am Em
As land begins to show
Am
You know you're homeward bound
Steaming by the Gunna Sound
F C
With passion then you stand again
Am Em Am
Upon your island ground
[Chorus]
C
For I want to go
Am
Where the great Atlantic roars
F C
From the cliffs of Kennavara
Dm G
To majestic Skerryvore
C
And breathe again the air
Am
My island body craves
F C
And feel again the freedom
G C
Of the land below the waves
[Verse]
Am
The island of Tiree
Am
And its land and soil and sea
F C
Goes through the bone like fire and stone
Am Em
And who you're born to be
Am
On the world's fickle face
Unyielding anchors to a place
F C
The guiding star of who you are
Am Em Am
Your people and your race
[Verse]
Am
Stand on Kenovay
Am
Or the shores of Hudson Bay
F C
The wilds of Argentina
Am Em
Or New Zealand's earth and clay
Am
Our seeds are growing wide
But the roots of island pride
F C
Will bring us all together
Am Em Am
On the flooding of the tide
[Chorus]
C
And I want to go
Am
Where the great Atlantic roars
F C
From the cliffs of Kennavara
Dm G
To majestic Skerryvore
C
And breathe again the air
Am
My island body craves
F C
And feel again the freedom
G C
Of the land below the waves
[Chorus]

For I want to go
Am
Where the great Atlantic roars
F C
From the cliffs of Kennavara
