Runrig
Canada Ukulele Chords
Runrig - Canada
I've been trying to tab a lot of Runrig songs lately so if anyone has any tab
requests get in touch.
This is the chords for the song but I've included a tab of the intro as I hear it
played. It's also played at various points in the song but you can listen for yourselves.

Dm F
A prairie and a wind
Dm
Canada on the wire
F G
I'm trading all my fears
Dm F
And all my desires
Dm F
I watch your sun go down
Dm F G
A burning amber road
F G
Following the ghosts
Dm F
Wherever they go
'S chan fhaic mi cladach geal
No achadh cruithneachd 'fas
Gun sealladh mor de chradh
'S dealbh de bhas
A window on the stars
the journey of the few
Watching it all survive
It's all I can do
------
(Translation of the gaelic verse)
And I cannot see a white shore
Or a field of wheat growing
without the vision of suffering
and the picture of death
