Van Morrison - Celtic Ray: chords

G            C        G    C G
When Lewellen comes around,
        C                   G
And he goes through market town
Am                C       G
You'll be on the Celtic Ray,
G         C    G C
Are you ready

When McManus comes around
On his early morning round
Cryin' "Heron 'a' lay"
You'll be on the Celtic Ray (Are you ready?)

Am         G/B      C        G/B
Ireland,  Scotland, England, Wales
       Am         G/B     C      G/B
I can hear those Mothers voices calling,
  Am  G    Am   G    Am  G  D
Children, Children Children,

When the coalbrick man comes round
On a cold November day
(You'll be on) You'll be on the Celtic Ray
(Are you ready?) Are you ready?
Are you ready?

Chorus

Listen Jimmy (Listen Jimmy), I wanna go home
Listen Jimmy (Listen Jimmy), I wanna go home
I've been away (Too long) from the Ray too long
I've been away from the (Too long),
from the Ray too long

All over Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales
I can hear the mother voices calling
"Children, children (Children), come home children
(Children)"
"Children, come home on the Celtic Ray"
(Children, children)
In the early morning we'll go walkin'
where the light comes shining through
On the Celtic Ray (Children, children)
(I've been away too long) Oh, children (Children)
(I've been away too long, children)
(I've been away too long, children)
(I've been away too long)
