Follow the Heron - Karine Polwart
G C
The back of the winter is broken
D7 G
And light lingers long by the door
G C
And the seeds of the summer have spoken
D7 G
In gowans that bloom on the shore
|Chorus
| D G C
|By night and day we'll sport and we'll play
| G D
|And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
|G C
|Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
| D7 G
|And we follow the heron home
G C
In darkness we cradled our sorrow
D7 G
And stoked all our fires with fear
G C
Now these bones that lie empty and hollow
D7 G
Are ready for gladness to cheer
[Chorus]
G C
So long may you sing of the salmon
D7 G
And the snow-scented sounds of your home
G C
While the north wind delivers its sermon
D7 G
Of ice and salt water and stone
