Karliene - Last Of The Bards
CAPO: 1st Fret
[Intro]
G D G D G C G D G
[Verse 1]
I was born in the heather
D G
In my sweet northern land
With a song in my ears
D G
And a lute in my hand
[Verse 2]
And I've traveled the plains
D G
Collecting the sounds
And the stories of friends
D G
That I sing about now
[Chorus]
C G
And they call me the last of the bards
D
When I open my lungs and I spill out my heart
C G
They call me the last of the bards
D G
When I sing my old fashioned songs
[Instrumental]
G D G D G C G D G
[Verse 3]
And I tried not to cry
D G
When I left my sweet home
Where the old pipes were playing
D G
My favourite song
[Verse 4]
And I still hear it now
D G
On the cold northern wind
And I sing it aloud
D G
For the people I miss
[Chorus]
C G
And they call me the last of the bards
D
When I open my lungs and I spill out my heart
C G
They call me the last of the bards
D G
When I sing my old fashioned songs
[Verse 5]
I was born in the heather
D G
In my sweet northern land
With a song in my ears
D G
And a lute in my hand
[Verse 6]
And I've traveled the plains
D G
Collecting the sounds
And the stories of friends
D G
That I sing about now
[Chorus]
C G
And they call me the last of the bards
D
When I open my lungs and I spill out my heart
C G
They call me the last of the bards
D G
When I sing my old fashioned songs
[Outro] (3x)
