Thomas Fraser

	  		
verse 1 

C                      F               C 
Last night I heard the voice of Thomas Fraser  
C                                       G 
And the comfort of his words came to my ears  
C                                 F 
By a willow he was singing to the catfish  
C                     G              C      F 
And time had withered not his tender years  
   C                 G               C 
Oh time had withered not his tender years  


verse 2 

 C      F                                  C 
And the hummingbirds were singing while he played his old guitar  
C                                          G 
And with every word he sang the breeze was still 
C                                     F              C 
And a light was shining down upon the water from his eye  
C                G                 C    F 
If Thomas Fraser wants then Thomas will 
      C             G             C 
Oh If Thomas Fraser wants, Thomas will 


verse 3  

C                      F                  C 
If he sang of life's misfortunes he would sing up to the sky 
C                                          G 
As he struggled through the dangers of the deep  
C                                 F               C 
And a moment when he gazed upon a loving Shetland moon 
C                       G               C      F 
And a love song for his family in their sleep 
     C                 G               C 
Oh a love song for his family in their sleep 


verse 4 

 C      F                                  C 
And the hummingbirds were singing while he played his old guitar  
C                                          G 
And with every word he sang the breeze was still 
C                                     F              C 
And a light was shining down upon the water from his eye  
C                G                 C    F 
If Thomas Fraser wants then Thomas will 
      C             G             C 
Oh If Thomas Fraser wants, Thomas will 


Verse 5 

C                      F                  C 
If you join him by the willow you'll be welcome  
C                                          G 
To soothe the savage breast his voice will try 
 C                                 F               C 
You all will be made welcome there where peace of mind has curly hair 
C                  G               C      F 
 Thomas sings and plays to tell us why  
  C                 G               C 
Oh Thomas sings and plays to tell us why

And the hummingbirds were singing while he played his old guitar  
C                                          G 
And with every word he sang the breeze was still 
C                                     F              C 
And a light was shining down upon the water from his eye  
C                G                 C    F 
If Thomas Fraser wants then Thomas will 
      C             G             C

Outro 

   Am                     C 
As Thomas sang his song a baby sang along  
   C             G                 C 
If Thomas Fraser wants then Thomas will 
      C             G             C 
Oh If Thomas Fraser wants then Thomas will
