Intro: (one fast lick 1st then...) 
        Em  C  G  D  (4x)  Em 

                          G 
On a long dark loch, on a Uist moor 
  D               Em 
Before the winter turned 
G                     D 
We watched the circle round the moon 
    C                     Em 
The storm clouds gathered round 


                        G 
So I turned to you, but you were gone 
     D                Em 
So I turned for home alone 
     G                   D 
Over last year's rotting corn I walked 
          C                 Em 
Where the harvest winds had blown 



    G        D          C       G 
The Blinding lines have turned away 
        D         Em 
Shadows from your door 
    G       D        C       G 
And my worn heart is young today 
     D              Em 
This darkest winter gone 



INTERLUDE: (one fast lick 1st then...) 
           Em  C  G  D  (4x)  Em 


                                G 
Where the darkness whines on an eerie wind 
       D               Em 
In the hour before the dawn 
   G                   D 
We scanned this wasted land for life 
           C                Em 
All seemed void and without form 


                        G 
So I turned to you, but you were gone 
     D                  Em 
So I stood and watched alone 
          G                 D 
Where the doughty clouds of first light formed 
      C                 Em 
Their shapes across the soul 



    G        D          C       G 
The Blinding lines have turned away 
        D         Em 
Shadows from your door 
    G       D        C       G 
And my worn heart is young today 
     D              Em    F#m  G  A  Em  F#m  G  A 
This darkest winter gone 


INTERLUDE: (two fast licks 1st then...) 
           Em  C  G  D  (4x)   


   Em                 G 
So I turned my collar to the wind 
      D               Em 
And I asked myself in vain 
      G                  D 
Did I walk out here with you today 
  C            Em 
Or did I come alone? 


                 G 
But then I saw a distant sight 
  D                Em 
A heart behind the grey 
     G                   D 
Come shining through the darkest sky 
  C             Em 
Establishing my way 



    G        D          C       G 
The Blinding lines have turned away 
        D         Em 
Shadows from your door 
    G       D        C       G 
But my worn heart is young today 
     D              G 
This darkest winter gone 




    G        D          C       G 
The Blinding lines have turned away 
        D         Em 
Shadows from your door 
    G       D        C       G 
But my worn heart is young today 
     D              Em    
This darkest winter gone
