From: arbor Hi all, I'm looking for the guitar chords to a Scottish song that I've seen been called the Orkney Boatman's Song. However on the album Ivan Drever and Dick Clarke - October Bridge (1988) they call it The Fomaing Sea / Nancy. Seems like there is not much information about the song available on the web, but I did find some partial lyrics here http://www.scotsites.co.uk/eBooks/whiskydistilleries52.htm "The foaming sea is dear to me, It bears me on to thee, love! And what care I though the spume-drift fly. It speeds me on to thee, love! The heart that's true ne'er dreads the view Of stormy clouds or sea, love! ; The curling wave may scare the slave, It ne'er will scare the free, love!" Thanks for any help!! |
