COME BY THE HILLS Time: 3/4 Tenor: G Bass: C
- Music: Traditional Gaelic (Buachaill On Eirne)
1 4 1 4 1 *
Come by the hills to the land where fancy is free
1 4 1 4 5 *
And stand where the peaks meet the sky and the lochs meet the sea
1 6m 4 1 5 *
Where the rivers run clear and the bracken is gold in the sun
1 4 1 4 57 1 *
Ah, the cares of to-morrow can wait 'til this day is done
1 4 1 4 1 *
Oh, come by the hills to the land where life is a song
1 4 1 4 5 *
And sing while the birds fill the air with their joy all day long
1 6m 4 1 5 *
Where the trees sway in time and even the wind sings in tune
1 4 1 4 57 1 *
Ah, the cares of to-morrow can wait 'til this day is done
1 4 1 4 1 *
Come by the hills to the land where legend re-mains
1 4 1 4 5 *
Where stories of old fill the heart and may yet come a-gain
1 6m 4 1 5 *
Where our past has been lost and the future has still to be won
1 4 1 4 57 1 *
Ah, the cares of to-morrow can wait 'til this day is done
