ComaCluster - Something Scottish

Gm Am Dm Dm
Gm Am Dm C (8th)

Gm Am Dm Dm
Gm Am Dm Bb (6th)

Verse 1
Sniffing on my glass, I’m savouring the scent,
of something Scottish in it .. triple distilled
Reflecting on decades resting under seal (floating)

Verse 2:
Looking at the stranger, sitting at my right,
he’s been talking to me, obviously
Painting on a smile, I sagely nod my head (withdrawn)

Verse 3:
Getting on my feet, I’m heading for the street
where smokers tend to gather, eying me
Walking from the bright lights, looking for a place (alone)

Chorus:
Dm Am Gm F Dm Bb Am Am
Dm Am Gm F Dm Am Bb (6th) A (5th)

I plan to make a dent in the universe, before I leave,
setting out for the distant shore, shrouded in fog
The ill-tempered ferryman will not get paid,
for I’d rather take a swim

When death comes knocking, I will long be gone,
Leaving no trace on this side of the waterway, lapping at my feet
Saddened to leave the world behind,
I glide into the waves

(4 points I’ve touched in life,
shining in my mind)

(4 points I’ve touched in life,
well beloved and eternally shining in my mind)
