Saying Jeanie you're trying the tricks of a whore

   C             Cadd9/B    F/A      G7sus4   C
You care nothing for a man who cares so very much for thee

You must marry with Lord Salton and leave Young Annachie

Although he may be pretty but where are all his lands

Salton's lands are broad and his towers they stand high

With Annachie Gordon oh I'd beg for my bread

    F                C C/B      Am7 Am7/G   F
Before that I'd marry Salton with gold to my head

   C             Cadd9/B    F/A      G7sus4   C
With gold to my head and with gowns fringed to the knee

Dm7 C/E   F               C   C/B   Am7   Am7/G   F    Fadd9
Oh I'll die if I don't get my love Annachie

And you that are my parents oh to church you may me bring

    F                C C/B      Am7 Am7/G   F
Ah but unto Lord Salton Oh I'll never bear a son

A son or a daughter oh I'll never bow my knee

Dm7 C/E   F               C   C/B   Am7   Am7/G   F    Fadd9
Oh, I'll die if I don't get my love Annachie

C    G7sus4 C               Dm7             C/E
When Jeanie was married and from church she was brought home

    F                C C/B      Am7 Am7/G   F
And she and her maidens so merry should have been

   C             Cadd9/B    F/A      G7sus4   C
When she and her maidens so merry should have been

Dm7 C/E   F               C   C/B   Am7   Am7/G   F    Fadd9
Oh she's gone to a chamber and she's crying all alone

C    G7sus4 C               Dm7             C/E
Come to bed now Jeanie, oh my honey and my sweet

    F                C C/B      Am7 Am7/G   F
For to style you my mistress it would not be meet

   C             Cadd9/B    F/A      G7sus4   C
Oh it's mistress or Jeanie it's all the same to me

Dm7 C/E   F               C   C/B   Am7   Am7/G   F    Fadd9
For it's in your bed Lord Salton I never shall be

C    G7sus4 C               Dm7             C/E
And up and spoke her father and he's spoken with renown

    F                C C/B      Am7 Am7/G   F
All you who are her maidens won't you loosen off her gown

   C             Cadd9/B    F/A      G7sus4   C
But she fell down in a swoon, so low down by their knees

Dm7 C/E   F               C   C/B   Am7   Am7/G   F    Fadd9
Saying Look on for I'm dying for my love Annachie

C    G7sus4 C               Dm7             C/E
The day that Jeanie married was the day that Jeanie died

    F                C C/B      Am7 Am7/G   F
That's the day that young Annachie come rolling from the tide

   C             Cadd9/B    F/A      G7sus4   C
And Down came her maidens and they're wringing of their hands

Dm7 C/E   F               C   C/B   Am7   Am7/G   F    Fadd9
Saying woe to you Annachie for staying from the sands

   C             Cadd9/B    F/A      G7sus4   C
So long from the land and so long upon the flood

Dm7 C/E   F               C   C/B   Am7   Am7/G   F    Fadd9
Oh they've married your Jeanie and now she is dead

C    G7sus4 C               Dm7             C/E
All you that are her maidens won't you take me by the hand

    F                C C/B      Am7 Am7/G   F
Won't you lead me to the chamber that my love lies in

   C             Cadd9/B    F/A      G7sus4   C
And he's kissed her cold lips until his heart turned to stone

Dm7 C/E   F               C   C/B   Am7   Am7/G   F    Fadd9
And he's died in the chamber where his true love lay in
