Shanagolden

	C	Am	F	C
The	cold winds from the	mountains, are	calling soft to	me,

	G	Em	Am	G7
The	smell of scented	heather, brings	bitter memo	ries,

	G	Em	Am	G7
The	wild and lonely	eagle, up	in the summer	sky,

	Am	F	C
Flies	high or Shanna	golden, where my young Willy	lies

	C	Am	F	C
Do	you remember	darling, we	walked the moonlit	road,

	G	Em	Am	G7
I	held you in my	arms then, I'd	never let you	go,

	G	Em	Am	G7
Our	hands they were ent	wined my love	all in the pale moon	light,

	Am	F	C
By the	fields of Shana	golden, on a lonely winter's	night.

	C	Am	F	C
Then	came the call to	arms love, and the	hills they were a	flamed,

	G	Em	Am	G7
Down	from the silent	mountains, the	Saxon strangers	came,

	G	Em	Am	G7
I	held you in my	arms then, my	young heart wild with	fear,

	Am	F	C
By the	fields of Shana	golden, in the spring time of the	year.

	C	Am	F	C
And you	fought them darling	Willy, all	through those summer	days,

	G	Em	Am	G7
I	heard the rifles	firing, in the	mountains far a	way,

	G	Em	Am	G7
I	held you in my	arms then, your	blood ran free and	bright,

	Am	F	C
And	you died in Shana	golden on a lonely winter's	night.

	C	Am	F	C
Oh but	that was long a	go my love, and our	son grows fine and	tall,

	G	Em	Am	G7
The	hills they are at	peace again, the	Saxon strangers	gone,

	G	Em	Am	G7
There's	roses on your	grave my love, there's	an eagle in the	sky,

	Am	F	C
Flying	high or Shana	golden, where my young Willy	died.

Repeat first verse
