Lyrics

[Chorus] Mull of Kin-tyre, oh mist roll-ing in from the sea. My de-sire is al-ways to be-- here, oh Mull of Kin-tyre. [Verse 1] Far have I trav-elled and much have I-- seen. Dark dis-tant moun-tains with val-leys of green. Past paint-ed de-serts the sun-set's on-- fire as he car-ries me home to the Mull of Kin-tyre. [Chorus] Mull of Kin-tyre, oh mist roll-ing in from the sea. My de-sire is al-ways to be here, oh Mull of Kin-tyre. [Verse 2] Sweep through the hea-ther like deer in the-- glen. Car-ry me back to the days I knew then. Nights when we sang like a hea-ven-ly choir, of the life and the times of the Mull of Kin-tyre. [Chorus] Mull of Kin-tyre, oh mist roll-ing in from the sea. My de-sire is al-ways to be-- here, oh Mull of Kin-tyre. [Verse 3] Smiles in the sun-shine and tears in the rain. Still take me back where my memo-ries re-main. Flick-er-ing em-bers grow high-er and high-er as they car-ry me back to the Mull of Kin-tyre. [Chorus x 2] Mull of Kin-tyre, oh mist roll-ing in from the sea. My de-sire is al-ways to be-- here, oh Mull of Kin-tyre. Mull of Kin-tyre, oh mist roll-ing in from the sea. My de-sire is al-ways to be-- here, oh Mull of Kin-tyre. [Outro] Woh, eh, ho.

Notice

N.C. - no chord I have Scottish roots, so couldn't resist doing this song. Bagpipes: The bagpipes have only nine notes. They are not set in the usual western major or minor scales, rather, they use the lydian/mixolydian scale, which places the half tones in a different position. Chanter notes are G A B Csharp D E Fsharp G A (the C sharp is flatter than the tempered scale and the A of the chanter is close to B flat). The practice chanter is unique to Scottish and Spanish piping. It is the same length as the bagpipe chanter but sounds an octave lower.
