Runrig - Pride Of The Summer Chords

Runrig - Pride of the Summer

Standard Tuning

Capo on 1st fret

Great song and simple too.

Intro:

G, G, G, G


G                 D              G
I still hear the snares in the square
G                     Em   D
Colours ablaze in the evening
G                           D     Em
The air was still down the stormy hill
      C                   Am   D
It's good to be young and daring


          G
Beat the drum
          D
Beat the drum
          Em
Like a heartbeat
 C           D
Lonely and strong
          G
Beat the drum


[Repeat the same chord sequence for the rest of the verses and chorus]

Bridge:

G, C, G, (repeat)




Lyrics:

I still see the blood on the knees
The camans swing without warning
The lads in white
At the speed of light
It's good to be young and daring

(Chorus)

Across the bay I still hear the strains
The two step loud and Blairing
We walked hand in hand
To the accordion band
It's good to be young and daring

(Chorus)

She was the pride of the summer that year
She was my sweetheart, my lady
We walked the black rock
And we stopped by the loch
It's good to be young and daring

(Chorus)
