[Intro] Am C F Dm7 C Am G Em Am C F Dm7 C G D Am [Verse]
                            C           F     Dm7
What's the spring breathing jasmine and rose?

           C           Am         G       Em
What's the summer with all its gay train?

       Am           C         F     Dm7
Or the splendour of autumn to those

       C              G            Am
Who've bartered their freedoms for gain?
[Chorus]
        F                         C
Let the love of our land's sacred right

       Am                    G    Em
To the love of our people succeed

    Am                     F    Dm7
Let friendship and honour unite

    C           G         Am
And flourish on both sides the Tweed
[Instrumental] Am C F Dm7 C G D Am [Verse]
                 C           F      Dm7
No sweetness the senses can achieve

         C           Am      G     Em
Which corruption and bribery bind

   Am              C              F     Dm7
No brightness that gloom can e'er gleam

    C            G     Am
For honour's the sum of the mind
[Chorus]
        F                         C
Let the love of our land's sacred right

       Am                    G    Em
To the love of our people succeed

    Am                     F    Dm7
Let friendship and honour unite

    C           G         Am
And flourish on both sides the Tweed
[Instrumental] Am C F Dm7 C Am G Em Am C F Dm7 C G Am F C Am G Em Am C F Dm7 C G D Am [Verse]
              C            F     Dm7
Let virtue distinguish the brave

      C         Am       G     Em
Place riches in lowest degree

           Am          C        F     Dm7
Think them poorest who can be a slave

     C           G      Am
Them richest who dare to be free
[Chorus]
        F                         C
Let the love of our land's sacred right

       Am                    G    Em
To the love of our people succeed

    Am                     F    Dm7
Let friendship and honour unite

    C           G         Am
And flourish on both sides the Tweed

                           F    Dm7
Let friendship and honour unite

    C           G              Am
And flourish on both sides the Tweed
