I've been trying to tab a lot of Runrig songs lately so if anyone has any tab 
requests get in touch.

This is the chords for the song but I've included a tab of the intro as I hear it 
played. It's also played at various points in the song but you can listen for yourselves.

CHORDS

Intro:

G, G, G, G,


Em, Em, D, D,  x4  (play over Intro part one)

Em, C, G, D,  x2  (play over intro part two)



Am               G
A prairie and a wind
               Am
Canada on the wire
G                   D
I'm trading all my fears
     Em       C
And all my desires
Am                   G
I watch your sun go down
                 Am    C   D
A burning amber road
G               D
Following the ghosts
     Em       C
Wherever they go



'S chan fhaic mi cladach geal
No achadh cruithneachd 'fas
Gun sealladh mor de chradh
'S dealbh de bhas

A window on the stars
the journey of the few
Watching it all survive
It's all I can do 


------


(Translation of the gaelic verse)

And I cannot see a white shore
Or a field of wheat growing
without the vision of suffering
and the picture of death
