Biography:
Named for an island off Scotland's western coast, the group Iona was formed in the late '80s by vocalist Joanne Hogg and multi-instrumentalists David Fitzgerald and Dave Bainbridge.
They are contemporaries of fellow Celtic artists Enya and Clannad; however, Iona's works are also influenced heavily by jazz-fusion, prog-rock and ancient Christian themes.
For Iona's 1990 debut album, the band added: drummer Terl Bryant, bassist Nick Beggs (former bassist of Kajagoogoo) and several studio musicians -- Fiona Davidson (Celtic harp)

Iona - Edge Of The World
[Intro]
F
[Verse 1]

Mist that hangs like silk, soaking in the rain
F
Trees that rise like ghosts, bearing people's names

And a sea that takes me where I do not know
F
But I gladly go
[Verse 2]
C Bb
Shrouded in the sweetest grass I've ever known
F
This my earthly bed, my beloved home
C Bb
But the voice that calls me to the faraway
C
I can only trust every word you say

And here I am, out on the edge of the world

This my final prayer in my native land

Taste the salt of tears for those I have to leave
