Hi Gary
As I promised here's Celia of the Seals from Donovan's HMS Donovan Album. Sorry it took more than two days but teaching got in the way. Have asked a friend for the chords but this will take longer is great if you can work out an echo on the chorus of this
Should you wander this land to the north As few seldom do Should you follow the song of the gull to Enchanted Western Isle Coax a fisherman take you out Where the silky seals are seen Hear the stories that they tell about Celia of the seals She knows just how they feel Celia of the seals
Chorus Noinia noinia noinia noinia noinia nay Celia of the seals
Seal hunters are not brave and bold They murder her poor wee seals And cut of the skins with their souls Cursed are those who deal There's no reason for this slaughtering They are left on the rocks to bleed It's not a man who does this thing It's a cruel and heartless deed Celia of the seals Celia of the seals Celia of the seals Celia of the seals
Chorus
Noinia noinia noinia noinia noinia nay Noinia noinia noinia noinia noinia nay Fade out from around here Noinia noinia noinia noinia noinia nay
Celia of the seals Celia of the seals
Crowhugger can get the chords to Atlantis if you still haven't got them. They are used as a simple background top the poem and as Gary says the refrain is repeated ad inf.
