Stornoway was a British alternative indie folk band who formed in 2006 in the Cowley Road area of Oxford, UK. The band consisted of singer and guitarist Brian Briggs, multi-instrumentalists Jon Ouin and Oli Steadman, and the latter's brother Rob Steadman on drums. The band was often joined by trumpeter Adam Briggs and violinist Rahul Satija.
In October 2016 the band announced that they would be splitting up after a farewell tour during spring 2017. They played their final show on 12 March 2017.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

[Intro]
'A'note played repeatedly on 5th fret bottom E for 1st verse and chorus (changes at 'Send my body out to work')
Conkers shining on the ground, The air is cooler And i feel like i just started uni Walking backwards to my van You're at your window, And i'm tripping every time i think of
Lying in your attic I can feel the static The storm has broken, Heavens open
[Verse 1] AD Send my body out to work A But leave my senses ED In orbit over south-east London AD Wind the window down and pinch A Me on the shoulder ED else i'll be driving off to dream of
[Chorus]
ADA Lying in your attic ADA I can feel the static DEDA The storm has broken, Heavens open
ADADA So electrifying, Oh i'm nearly flying D Lost my heart between EDA the sheets of lightening
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2] AD I've been singing you this song, A Inside a bubble, ED Been Zorbing through the streets of Cowley, AD We were always meant to be, A Zorbing together, DED And i think it's high time we started ADA Lying in your attic ADA I can feel the static DED The storm is breaking, windows shaking
ADADA So electrifying, Oh i'm nearly flying
Lost my heart between EDA the sheets of lightening
[Chorus]
ADA Lying in your attic ADA I can feel the static DED The storm has broken, Heavens open ADADA So electrifying, Oh i'm nearly flying D Lost my heart between EDA the sheets of lightening
[Outro] ADADAD EDA and fade out
Thanks and enjoy this brilliant song by Stornoway a great band.
