Old Ways  Loreena McKennitt



THE OLD WAYS (The Visit - 1991)

Intro: ( Bm - A - G - Em ) x 2
[Bm] The thundering waves a[A]re calling me home, home to yo[G]u                    [Em]
[Bm] The pounding sea is[A] calling me home, home to[G] you                [Em]

[Bm] On a dark new year's night   [A]
By the west coast of Clare      [G]
I heard your voice si[A]nging
[Bm] Your eyes danced the song      [A]
Your hands played the tune        [G]
T'was a vision before me[A].

[Bm] We left the music behind an[A]d the dance carried on                 [G]
As we stole away to[A] the seashore
[Bm] We smelt the brine, [A]felt the wind in our hair          [G]
And with sadness you paused.       [A]
Suddenly I knew t[Bm]hat you'd have to go            [A]
My world was not yours, your [G]eyes told me so                  [A]
Yet it was there[Bm] I felt the crossroads of time          [A]
And I wondered why.      [G]  [-]  [A]  [-]  [Bm]
[Bm] As we cast our gaze on[A] the tumbling sea            [G]
A vision came o'er me [A]
[Bm] Of thundering hooves a[A]nd beating wings           [G]
In clouds above. [A]
As you turned to go I he[Bm]ard you call my name,            [A]
Like a bird in a cage sp[G]reading its wings to fly              [A]
"The old ways are lost", yo[Bm]u sang as you flew              [A]
And I wondered why.       [G]  [-]  [A]  [-]  [Bm]
[Bm] The thundering waves a[A]re calling me home, home to yo[G]u                    [Em]
[Bm] The pounding sea is[A] calling me home, home to[G] you                [Em]
[Bm] The thundering waves a[A]re calling me home, home to yo[G]u                    [Em]
[Bm] The pounding sea is[A] calling me home, home to[G] you                [Em]
