Intro: F  C A# C

Dm             C          Dm        C
Looking out on all that's been 
            A#                C      Dm            
On all that is and all that's beyond time 
  C        Am      C  Dm
I close my eyes in isolation 

Dm               C        Dm        C
Here's where the word was sown 
           A#                   C           Dm            
All that's grown and all that's passed like ghosts 
            C        Am       C   Dm
Through the child to highland generations 


       A#            C
Now we walk in empty glens 
       F              A#
Rushes blowing in the wind 
               Dm           C
A voice that's calling you again 
             A# C
To come back ho-home 

                A#                    C
Where have they gone, where have they gone 
          Am          A#
Gone to illusion everyone 
               Dm                  C
In the darkest heart, the pride of man 
           A#   C
Will walk alone


F  C A# C

Science breaking down the door 
And all the hoardes go rushing through for more 
All the thrills of the world, and all her idols 

Here the water washed us clean 
A deeper peace for all our keenest sins 
Washed in these clear, clear crystal fountains 


Now we walk in empty glens 
Rushes blowing in the wind 
A voice that's calling you again 
To come back home 

Where have they gone, where have they gone 
Gone to illusion everyone 
In the darkest heart, the pride of man 
Will walk alone


Outro: F  C A# C  2x

Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
