Mull Of Kintyre

[blind-fitter]

How does it go again?

I know it was a huge hit, but I just can't remember . Thing is, my son (9) has to learn how to play it on the cornet. His efforts so far offend the ear somewhat . Now, if someone could just hum it to me down the Internet, I can demonstrate to him how it should sound.

Grateful for any help forthcoming.

listen to it here

Mull of Kintyre, oh mist rolling in from the sea

My desire is always to be here

Oh Mull of Kintyre

Far have I travelled and much have I seen

Dark distant mountains with valleys of green

Past painted deserts, the sun sets on fire

As he carries me home to the Mull of Kintyre

Mull of Kintyre, oh mist rolling in from the sea

My desire is always to be here

Oh Mull of Kintyre

Sweep through the heather like deer in the glen

Carry me back to the days I knew then

Nights when we sang like a heavenly choir

Of the life and the times of the Mull of Kintyre

Mull of Kintyre, oh mist rolling in from the sea

My desire is always to be here

Oh Mull of Kintyre

Smiles in the sunshine and tears in the rain

Still take me back where my mem'ries remain

Flickering embers grow higher and high'r

As they carry me back to the Mull of Kintyre

Mull of Kintyre, oh mist rolling in from the sea

My desire is always to be here

Oh Mull of Kintyre

Mull of Kintyre...

Migod, doesn't it go on?

Thing is, my son (9) has to learn how to play it on the cornet.

Learned it on the whatnow?

My son has learned Smells Like Teen Spirit on the cellery stick and is working up a good version of Stairway to Heaven on the Muller Rice tub...he's crap on the cornet.

Oh, johnny, you're such a caution!
