Mike Oldfield Moonshine Lyrics

Intro: G G Emi D/F# x2
Verse:
i
Walkin' out on a stormy day
The cold wind, the fine sea spray
i
Lookin' out over Gallway bay
The troubled sky, all dark and grey
Prechorus:
i
Far from these shores there stands liberty
So let it be
i
But every while I would remember
Chorus:
The day we drank moonshine in the rain
And raised our glasses to the wind
The day that we dreamed we could be free
i
And ride on the wings of liberty
So here's one more for our friends
And here's one for our children
Feeling the cold rain on our fingertips
i
And liberty on our lips
Verse 2: Same chords as verse 1
i
So we paid our dues and we packed our rags
Made it through Ellis Island's ranks
i
Across the waves to America
Hearts and souls to the stripes and the stars
i
Far from our shores we found liberty
So let it be
i
But every while I would remember
Chorus:
The day we drank moonshine in the rain
And raised our glasses to the wind
The day that we dreamed we could be free
i
And ride on the wings of liberty
So here's one more for our friends
And here's one for our children
Feeling the cold rain on our fingertips
i
And liberty on our lips
Verse 3:
i
So we made our way through the Cumberland Gap
Appalachia never looking back
i
Through the wind and rain and the cold and pain
But nothing evermore could feel the same
i
All of this life we strive to be free
So let it be
i
But every while I would remember
Solo (See the existing solo tab)
Chorus:
The day we drank moonshine in the rain
And raised our glasses to the wind
The day that we dreamed we could be free
i
And ride on the wings of liberty
So here's one more for our friends
And here's one for our children
Feeling the cold rain on our fingertips
i
And liberty on our lips
