Caledonian Rain

Written by Rev Hammer.  From the Drunk In Public CD.

I can't figure this out properly so I've just put the basic chords.
Any help greatly appreciated.


INTRO
G (and the funny riff/chord thing I can't get)


VERSE I
                        G
We are gonna sail that sea
                    G
To the western isles
                    C
Oh with the dirt of tears
                 G
And the smoke of fires
                  Em
Without a soul to see
                    G
Well I will know you again
D  
We both need to get back on the track
          D
Where the white is white and the black is black


CHORUS
C                         C
And I hope the Caledonian Rain 
D         C          G
Washes us, washes us down


VERSE II
Now with the feeling gone
From the letters we send
We're both stinking of lies
Like we were living in them 
We don't know when they came 
But they've got to leave soon
We'll take them out to some far flung place
And turn our backs on our disgrace


CHORUS
And then hope the Caledonian Rain
Washes us, washes us down


BRIDGE
              C
Oh and now to simply take you dancing
         G
Lift the veil of our sorrow
         C
With the music of the mountains
         G              D
Just the fiddle and the bow


FIDDLE SOLO Play D


VERSE III
Come on and take my hand
And give this love a try
With these Industrial days
They keep a' slipping on by
We need to feel the wind
Cut us to the bone
With the ocean coming in from miles around
Hearts' desires they may soon be found


CHORUS
And I hope the Caledonian Rain
Washes us, washes us down


FIDDLE SOLO
Same chords as verses


CHORUS
Hope the Caledonian Rain
Washes us, washes us down
