Walking on the Waves[C] - Tide lines
[intro]
[Verse 1]
C Am
An island in the sunlight, laughter in the rain.
G F
A whisky in the darkness, it all feels just the same.
C Am
Watch the sunset over Hynish see the twilight merge to dawn
G F
Hear the waves caress the shoreline as the island carries on.
[Chorus]
C F C G
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
Am F G C
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves
C F C G
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
Am F G C
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves
[Break]

C Am G C
[Verse 2]
C Am
There's two lovers on the machair and they walk down to the sand

G F
Their silhouettes are on the water as they paddle hand in hand.
C Am
And it's a game of sweet surrender when there's nothing left to say
G F
And there are moments to remember once these days are long away.
[Chorus]
C F C G
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
Am F G C
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves
C F C G
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
Am F G C
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves
[Break]

[Verse 3]
*slow*
C Am
So you look out on the ocean see the headlands and the strands
G F
And you wonder what horizons will shape tomorrow's plans
C Am
And through the turning of the seasons and the cycle of the days
G F
Every drink's another reason to let tomorrow sail away.
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
*slow*
F C F C
The surging of the ocean, the breakers on the shore
Dm F G
The echoes of our bodies, To the lovers’ dream we soar.
[Chorus]
