  Key of G

              G         D       C                    G                D       
  Fae the silence only a spring Sunday morning can claim,
        G            D            C               G                  D       
  The cackle o' hens, fae somewhere close at hand came.
  C           G              Em          D      
  Soft reassurance, delivered fae harm.
  G         D        C           D          G         
  One by one by one realising yer charms

  CHORUS:
                                  D        Em
  O Mother Nature, we meet at last.
  C           G  Em                  D      
  Strange we never met in the past.
         Bm              C   Am          
  You say I walked by you in every place,
            Em            D    C                    D             G       
  But, today, for the first time, I saw the sun in yer face.

  Today for the first time I saw the sun in yer face.

  The cushies in the fir wood crooned a lazy tune.
  Ma mind ceased tae wander, alive tae every soond.
  Heard the leaves on the trees and the buzzin' o' fleas.
  A lark headed for heaven and sang on the sweet scented breeze.

  A tingle shot through me. For once my soul leapt and laughed.
  Wis there mair than the pine in thon tiny wee waft?
  The sensation o' spring blew ma cobwebs away.
  A natural high at the dawn of a brand new day.
