capo 5 Intro: C Fsus9 C Fsus9 C Fsus9 You'll Find me sitting at this table C Fsus9 With my friend Finn and my Friend John Am G Fsus9 My friend Murdaney tells us stories C G Of things Long gone, long gone C Fsus9 and we may take a glass together C Fsus9 The Whiskey makes it all so clear Am G Fsus9 Fires our dull imaginations C Fsus9 And I feel so near, so near CHORUS: No chord C Fsus9 And I feel so near to the howling of the wind C Fsus9 Feel so near to the crashing of the waves Am G Fsus9 Feel so near to the flowers in the fields C CFsus9 Feel so near The old man looks out to the island He says this place is endless thin There's no real distance here to mention We might all fall in, all fall in No distance to the spirits of the living No distance to the spirits of the dead And as he turned his eyes were shining And he proudly said, proudly said CHORUS So we build our tower constructions There to mark our place in time We justify our great destructions As on we climb on we climb Now the journey doesn't seem to matter The destination's faded out And gathering out along the headland I hear the children shout, children shout CHORUS
