Corries - Scotland The Brave Chords

[Verse]
G
Hark when the night is falling
G
Hear! hear the pipes are calling,

C          C
Loudly and proudly calling,

D
Down through the glen.

G
There where the hills are sleeping,

G
Now feel the blood a-leaping,

C           G
High as the spirits
       D            G
of the old Highland men.


[Chorus]
G
Towering in gallant fame,

G
Scotland my mountain hame,

Em            D                A7      D  D7
High may your proud standards, Gloriously wave,

G
Land of my high endeavour,

G
Land of the shining rivers,

C          C
Land of my heart for ever,

D            G
Scotland the brave.


[Verse]
G
High in the misty Highlands,

G
Out by the purple islands,

C             C
Brave are the hearts that beat

D
Beneath Scottish skies.

G
Wild are the winds to meet you,

G
Staunch are the friends that greet you,

C           G
Kind as the love that shines

          D        G
from fair maidens' eyes.


[Chorus]
G
Towering in gallant fame,

G
Scotland my mountain hame,

Em            D                A7      D  D7
High may your proud standards, Gloriously wave,

G
Land of my high endeavour,

G
Land of the shining rivers,

C          C
Land of my heart for ever,

D            G
Scotland the brave.


[Verse]
G
Far off in sunlit places,

G
Sad are the Scottish faces,

C           C
Yearning to feel the kiss

D
Of sweet Scottish rain.

G
Where tropic skies are beaming,

G
Love sets the heart a-dreaming,

C           G                D        G
Longing and dreaming for the homeland again.


[Chorus]
G
Towering in gallant fame,

G
Scotland my mountain hame,

Em            D                A7      D  D7
High may your proud standards, Gloriously wave,

G
Land of my high endeavour,

G
Land of the shining rivers,

C          C
Land of my heart for ever,

D            G
Scotland the brave.
