Tom: C
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
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
[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
