Here's the tune as promised: X:1 T:I Will Stay M:4/4 L:1/4 Q:1/4=140 C:Bob Skingle K:G "Chorus:"B c|d2 B d|g2 w:You have tempt-ed me here e c|A2 f e|e d2 w:With your hills and your moor-lands (B/A/)|G2 e d|c2 c B|(A B) c d|B2 w:Your_ clear moun-tain streams flow-ing down_ to the bay B c|d2 B d|g2 e c|A2 f e|e d w:I have come to your town from a small rock-y is-land B A|G2 e d|d c c B|G4-|G z|| w:But in val-ley and high-lands I will stay_ "Verse:"d d|e2 e g|(g f) w:There is smoke in the air_ f e|d2 B d|g e3| w:From your tall fact'-ry chim-neys e e2 g|(g f) (f e)|d2 B d|e3 w:Red brick turns brown_ where_ kids laugh and play e|e2 e g|g f2 e|d2 B d|g e2 w:Your land lives with leg-end and sings with proud mus-ic e/ e/|e e2 e|e d c B|A4-|A z|| w:In your val-leys and high-lands I will stay_ The above is the version as printed in Sitting In The Sun, however ZM thinks line 3 of the chorus should end on d2 instead of B2 (bay) and we both think the chorus ended with I will stay repeated as: B A|G2 e d|d c G E|D2 B A|G2|| w:But in val-ley and high-lands I will stay, I will stay However it's the best part of 30 years since I last heard the song sung and that may be a trick of the memory.
