McCalmans " I have seen the Highlands" Chords

_ [G] I was born [D] and [Em] raised in Glasgow, in a [C] Gallagher [D] tenement,
[C] And when [A] people [C] spoke of my [D] bonny land, [Em] I didn't [D] know what [C] they meant.
[G] But then I [D] took [Em] to travel, _ [G] [C] I made far [D] and wide,
[C] And [Am] now when I speak of my native [D] land, [Em] I speak [D] with [C] love and pride.
[G] For I [D] have [Em] seen the high land, [G] I have [D] seen the low,
_ [Am] And I will rather my [D] native [Em] land, wherever [D]
I [C] may [Em] go.
_ [D] _
_ [C] _ _ [Em] _ _ [D] _
[C] _ _ [G] Oh, [D] native [Em] people come forth, many [C] a [D] day's gone by,
[C] To [Am] outdo all [C] of her wondrous [D] work, [Em] she [D] thought she'd [C] have a try.
[G] She [D] foiled [Em] and she thundered, she [C] rumbled [D] and she roared,
[C] She [Am] made the highlands of [C] Scotland, [D] then [Em] she threw [D] away [C] the moat.
[G] For I [D] have [Em] seen the high land, I [C] have [D] seen the low,
[C] And [Am] I will [C] rather my [D] native [Em] land, wherever [D]
I [C] may [G] go.

[C] _ _ _ [G] Go [D] rounding [Em] out by the burn, _ [C] rolling [D] down by turn,
[C] On the rugged [Am] hills [C] of great [D] Ireland, she [Em] feverishly [D] could play.
[C] On earth, [G] go [D] gaze [Em] upon the cool lands, see the [C] lowland [D] in the mist.
[C] On the land [Am]
[C] of England, the full [D] of [Em] ear, the sun [D] burned [C] at his face.
[G] For [D] I have [Em] seen the high land, I [C] have [D] seen the low,
[G] And [Am] I will rather [C] my [D] native land, [Em] wherever [D]
I [C] may [G] go.

[C] _ _ _ [G] _ [D] Irish [Em] and the English, the [G] [C] African [D] and Turk,
[C] In the [Am] world of [C] joy and of [D] harmony, [Em] [D] together [C] we must work.
[G] On this shore, [D] the [Em] foreign rovers, we lay [C] no [D] robbers on.
[C] And [Am] I ask [C] you, put all [D] our lives [Em] in [D] our own [C] native land.
[G] For I [D] have [Em] seen the high land, I [C] have [D] seen the low,
_ [C] And I [Am] will [C] rather my [D] native [Em] land, wherever [Am]
[C] I may go.
[G] For [D] I have seen [Em] the high land, [G] I have seen [D] the low,

While Nick goes off and changes his strings, I'll sing a quiet song called The Town of Canberra.
Please don't applaud while I'm doing my guitar break at the beginning. _
_ _ It's just embarrassing. _
Or if you recognize the tune, and it is one [C#] of your favorites. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
Well done, you [N] didn't.
_ That was just a test. _ _ _ _
