runrig – precious years

intro : E

E B C#m A B E

it’s all over now , no more summers in heaven

E B C#m F#m A B

after world war two wed and a life of ups and downs

E B C#m A B E

i see it now , precious even on paper

E B C#m F#m B E

a young man and his bride and the man to make time stand still

E A E

but now i know and i don’t want to believe it

B

where does it leave you now

E

that the precious years are gone

outro/Bridge :

E , A , E , A ( repeat )

verse two ( same chords as verse one )

all things remain to ignore and outlive you

from the man in the moon to the greenhills outside your door

alone you came so alone you must go now

there’s no mountain on earth can ever outlive your soul

chorus

i know you well , you’ll be nothing but grateful

never let it be said they were spent in thoughtless ways

warm winds blow ’cross the ties that bind forever

for a place in the sun and for the hearts of love a home

chorus

enjoy!
