Song For The Mira
Recorded by Anne Murray
Written by Allister MacGillivray

G     C       G
Out on the Mira one warm afternoon
D7     G      C       D7
Old men go fishing with black line and spoon
G         C         G
And if they catch nothing they never complain
       D7    G
I wish I was with them again

                C      G
As boys in their boats call to girls on the shore
D7     G       C   D7
Teasing the one that they dearly adore
G          C      G
And into the evening the courting begins
       D7    G
I wish I was with them again

C         G
Can you imagine a piece of the universe
D7            G
More fit for princes and kings
C             G
I'll trade you ten of your cities
      A7             D7
For Marion Bridge and the pleasure it brings

G     C      G
Out on the Mira on soft summer nights
D7    G      C     D7
Bonfires blaze to the children's delight
G                C        G
They dance round flames singing songs with their friends
       D7    G
I wish I was with them again

Repeat #3

G            C      G
Now I'll conclude with a wish you go well
D7      G        C     D7
Sweet be your dreams and your happiness swell
G             C     G
I'll leave you here for my journey begins
        D7    G      D7
I'm going to be with them going to be with them
  G      D7    G
I'm going to be with them again

Repeat #3
