F  G  Am    F  G  Em  Am  F  G  Am    Dm7  C  F

[Verse 1]
        C              Em
Oh, the wind, you tell stories
   F           C
Of men lost at sea
       F           C
To the cold of the water
         Dm7  C      F
From the draw of the waves


[Verse 2]
                    C
The sea through the salt air
    Dm7 C    Am
Harder to my eyes
       C                 Dm7
I live deep 'neath your topcoat
         F          C      F
With the fears of a child


[Verse 3]
   C                  Em
In dreams we’re still standing
   F             C
My hand small in yours
   F            C
As we watch the tide break
         Dm7 C     F
O'er our Donegal shores


[Verse 4]
                      C
Pure gold threads the swell
      Dm7   C       Am   G
White surge rolling in
  C             Dm7
A low sun sends shadows
      F    G      C
Far beyond Carrickfinn

F  G  Am    F  G  Em  Am  F  G  Am    Dm7  C  F


[Verse 5]
     C               Em
Grey seals sing your name
           F           C
While they bask in the sun
F           C
Guiding you homeward
     Dm7 C          F
Blue dolphins shall run


[Verse 6]
                C
Stars point the way
        Dm7 C     Am   G
As your journey begins
   C                  Dm7
My love will run with you
      F    G      C
Far beyond Carrickfinn


[Verse 7]
F               C
Stars point the way
        Dm7 C     F  G  Am  G
As your journey begins_____
   C                  Dm7
My love will run with you
      F    G      C
Far beyond Carrickfinn
