Skye Boat Song
Tom Bryce; many others 1884
  (BTM 1)   Barry Wonson
 
two columns

OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Speed bonny boat
Like a bird on a wing
Onward
The sailors cry
(Four ladies chain)
Carry the lad (Chain 'em back)
Born to be king (Promenade)
Over the sea to Skye

FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads left square thru
Left touch 1/4, walk & dodge
Wheel around, dixie style to an ocean wave
Men cross run, recycle
Pass thru, allemande left
Swing your girl and promenade
Over the sea to Skye

MIDDLE BREAK   

Sides face grand square
Mull was astern
Rum on the port
Eigg on the starboard bow
, (Four ladies chain)
Glory of youth (Chain 'em back)
Glowed in his soul (Promenade)
Where is that glory now

CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Loud the winds howl
Loud the waves roar
Thunder...fills the air
(Four ladies chain)
Billow and breeze (Chain 'em back)
Islands and seas (Promenade)
Mountains of rain...and sun

TAG

Circle left
O-O-Over the sea... to Skye
