[Verse]
    D            C/D    D A         D   G/D A
The sun had been up for a couple of hours,
D           C/D    D      A        D    G/D A
Covered the ground with a layer of gold.
D            C/D      D   A           D     G/D
Spirits were high and the raining had stopped,
A   D          C/D D A
The larder was low
D                   F/C
But boy that wasn't all.
              C
Eleventh Earl of Mar
G/D                  C#dim7
Couldn't get them very far.

Daddy!

Oh Daddy
    B       F#/B A/B F# C#/F# E/F#
You Promised.

[Verse]
D          C/D         D A          D    G/D A
Out on the road in the direction of Perth,
D             C/D      D    A           D    G/D
Backwards and forwards in a circle they went.
      A D         C/D  D   A        D    G/D
Found a city half open and ready to greet,
A     D          C/D   D A
Those conquering heroes
D                      F/C
With blisters on their feet.
              C
Eleventh Earl of Mar
G/D                  C#dim7
Somehow got them all this far.

You Promised
    B       F#/B A/B F# C#/F# B/F#

[Chorus]
F/G Em F/G Am F/G Em F/G

F/G         Em  F/G
See the Stewart all dressed up
Am       F/G              Em     F/G  Am
He's got eyes in the back of his head.
Bb/C  Am    F#m7
Who came in a cockleshell boat
     F#m6
That could only just float,
F#sus4               F#
Couldn't even lift a sword.
Fsus4            F
Dressed too fine and smelling of wine.
 Bb/F F Ab/F Eb/F  F/G   Em  F/G             Am F/G Em F/G
                   Daddy     you've got to go!
F/G              Em   F/G
Here comes the bishop all dressed up
Am      F/G                       Em    F/G  Am
He's gonna bless you if you're ready to pay.
Bb/C   Am   Bb/C                Am
One wave of his funny old stick,
Bb/C           C  Bb/C         Am
There's a band of light across your eyes.

[Verse]
D        C/D        D    A       D    G/D
Waited a week still they hadn't appeared,
A    D        C/D    D    A        D    G/D
That glorious timing that everyone feared.
   A       D       C/D     D   A          D   G/D
So they're riding along on the crest of a wave,
A       D          C/D   D A
They're headed for London
D                      F/C
And that will be their grave.
              C

        G/D                    C#dim7
Well he couldn't get them down that far

I'm waiting,
    B      F#/B A/B F# C#/F# E/F#
I'm waiting

[Bridge]
G6/A          G6/F    G6/E
Time to go to bed now
Cmaj9/G         D/E
Never seems too keen
        Ebadd9
To be a guest now
           Eb/D Cadd9  G6/A
In a house of dreams
G6/A          G6/F    G6/E
Flying from a hillside
Cmaj9/G       D/E
Beckoning the trees
             Ebadd9
A sailboat's awning
          Eb/D Cadd9  Bb/C
Mimicking the breeze

[Pre-Chorus]
Am           F/A     G/A
I'm fighting gravity falling
Am       F/A            G/A
My Daddy won't let them get me
Am              F/A         G/A
A voice screams seems to be calling
Am             F/A          G/A
The face turns features are burning.
