Donovan

Isle Of Islay
Capo on 2 standard tuning

Dm C
How high the gulls fly o'er Islay
Dm Bb
How sad the farm land deep in play
C Bb Dm
Felt like a grain on your sand

Dm C
How well the sheeps bell music makes
Dm Bb
Roving the cliff when fancy takes
C Bb Dm
Felt like a tide left me here

Dm C
How blessed the forest with birdsong
Dm Bb
How neat the cut peat laid so long
C Bb Dm
Felt like a seed on your land
Interlude
Dm Dm2 Dm C G Dm
Dm Dm2 Dm C G Dm
(the shift from dm to dm2 is very quick dm2 is played on fifth fret)

Dm C
How high the gulls fly o'er Islay
Dm Bb
How sad the farm land deep in play
C Bb Dm
Felt like a tide left me here
C Bb Dm
Felt like a grain on your sand
C Bb Dm
Felt like a grain on your sand
