[Verse 1]
             G               Cadd9        G         Dsus4
There are stories I’ve heard told, of an unfamiliar road
            Em7             Cadd9        G  G/F#
Where the evening sun hangs gold in the skyline
       G           Cadd9          G            Dsus4
In a quiet unknown town, there is solace to be found
        Em7       Cadd9         G   G/F#
In the unforsaken hours of the twilight
 Em7      Cadd9           G  G/F#  Em7 Cadd9            G  Dsus4
There’s a girl and I can see her   far away  from this frontier
 
 
[Chorus]
               G                  Dsus4
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
           Em7                Cadd9
Where the skies reach out for miles
                                G
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
      Cadd9  Dsus4       G
On the far side of the world
 
 
[Verse 2]
         G      Cadd9             G          Dsus4
On an evening in July ‘neath the red Lochaber sky
      Em7                Cadd9        G  G/F#
She smiled and closed her eyes on my shoulder
            G               Cadd9             G           Dsus4
Now I’m a million miles from home, from the girl I call my own
           Em7        Cadd9         G   G/F#
And I’m dreaming all alone just to hold her
Em7  Cadd9         G G/F#   Em7      Cadd9          G Dsus4
As I look into the water, I see her standing at the altar
 
 
[Chorus]
               G                  Dsus4
And  I wanna dance with a Highland girl
           Em7                Cadd9
Where the skies reach out for miles
                                G
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
      Cadd9 Dsus4        G
On the far side of the world
 
               G                  Dsus4
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
           Em7                Cadd9
Where the skies reach out for miles
                                G
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
      Cadd9 Dsus4       G
On the far side of the world
 
 
[Verse 3]
             G           Cadd9          G             Dsus4
Nail your colours to the mast, in the footsteps of the past
     Em7                  Cadd9           G  G/F#
And when you breathe your last, life’s returning
              G              Cadd9            G                Dsus4
For when the sun sets on the years, all the miles and all the tears
   Em7            Cadd9           G  G/F#
A world away from here, it’s the morning
Em7   Cadd9          G G/F#   Em7     Cadd9               G Dsus4
In my mind I see her smile, where the tide lines grace the isle
 
 
[Chorus]
               G                  Dsus4
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
           Em7                Cadd9
Where the skies reach out for miles
                                G
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
      Cadd9 Dsus4       G
On the far side of the world
 
                G                  Dsus4
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
           Em7                Cadd9
Where the skies reach out for miles
                                G
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
      Cadd9 Dsus4       G
On the far side of the world
 
 
[Outro]
               G                  Dsus4
‘Cos I wanna dance with a Highland girl
           Em7                Cadd9
Where the skies reach out for miles
                                G
I wanna feel the breeze of the Hebrides
      Cadd9  Dsus4       G
On the far side of the world
                                                 (x4)
