[Intro]

F#m A D
 
 
[Verse 1]
F#m            A        Bm          D
From the word start my feet set to wander
F#m         A           D  E
Down shady lanes in the morning
D         C#m          D        A
Endlessly searching in restless abandon
A               F#m
Reaching for my Hannah
A               E E7 A
Daughter of the Highlands
 
     F#m          A         Bm            D
With eyes full of gauze and shoes full of gravel
  F#m            A           D  E
I don’t know the way still I follow
D                C#m  Bm        D
Down through the ages eternally longing
A           F#m              E  A
Combing the highlands for my Hannah
 
 
[Chorus 1]
    E                       D              A
And when I get to town I’ll dance you all around
F#m                D               E
Drain the old malt barrel we’ll be smiling
      A             F#m          D            Bm
We’ll laugh ’til we cry and make love ’til we die
   A                   F#m
Oh how I’ve missed you Hannah
A               E E7 A
Daughter of the Highlands

[Verse 2]
       F#m          A             Bm           D
I’ve endured battle scars my best years in the trenches
    F#m             A                 D E
And cruel sounds of war that can’t be silenced
   D              A               Bm          D
It left my ears a-ringing still I hear Hannah singing
A                F#m         E   A
Calling my heart back to the highlands
 
      F#m                  A              Bm                D
In my dreams you’re always young although now you’d be much older
     F#m          A                       D  E
Your face still unchanged your eyes still crying
         D               C#m         Bm               D
From the day you got the letter that told you I would never
        A              F#m
Make it home to you my Hannah
A               E E7 A
Daughter of the Highlands

[Chorus 2]
    E                       D              A
And when I get to town I’ll dance you all around
F#m                D               E
Drain the old malt barrel we’ll be smiling
      A             F#m          D            Bm
We’ll laugh ’til we cry and make love ’til we die
   A                   F#m
Oh how I’ve missed you Hannah
A               E E7 A
Daughter of the Highlands

[Verse 5]
       F#m           A           Bm            D
In the still hour of dawn like a vapor rushing over
    F#m       A                     E
The waters of time our love keeps riding
         D               A            Bm      D
Not just mine but all my brothers and so many others
A              F#m              E    A
Still haunting across the misty highlands
 
 
[Bridge]
E                                D            A
For though your darling boys who went away to join
     F#m                 D                 E
Have left this world and never more you’ll find them
        A                 F#m           D              Bm
But our souls go marching on and you’ll hear us like a song
         A            F#m                   E   A
When the wind comes a whistling through the Highlands
 
A                   F#m     D                 Bm
We’ll laugh ’til we cry and make love ’til we die
   A                      Bm               E   A
Oh how we’ve missed those daughters of the Highlands
