[Verse 1]
D D Oh rowan tree, oh rowan tree G G D Thou'lt aye be dear to me D D G D Entwined thou art wi' many ties A D Of hame and infancy D G Thy leaves were aye the first of spring D A Thy flowers the summer's pride D D G D There was nae such a bonnie tree A D In all the country side
[Verse 2]
D D How fair were thou in summer time G G D With all thy clusters white D D G D How rich and gay thy autumn dress, A D Wi' berries red and bright. D G On thy fair stem were many names D A Which now no more I see D D G D But they're engraven on my heart, A D Forgot they ne'er can be
[Verse 3]
D D We sat beneath thy spreadin' shade G G D The bairns around thee ran D D G D They pull'd thy bonnie berries red, A D And necklaces they strang D G My mother, oh! I see her still, D A She smiled our sports to see D D G D With little Jeannie on her lap, A D And Jamie on her knee.
