[Chorus]
C                    F
Maxwellton braes are bonnie, Where

C              D7  G
early fa’s the dew,

          C               F
And it’s there that Annie Laurie

     C      G       C
Gave me her promise true.

C           G       C
Gave me her promise true,

      Am       G        E
Which ne’er forgot will be.

E   E7  Am     F     C      E7
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,

    Am     G        C
I’d lay me doon and dee.
[Verse 1]
C                    F
Her brow is like the snowdrift,

C                      D7   G
Her neck it’s like the swan,

     C             F
Her face it is the fairest,

     C        G         C
That e’er the sun shone on.

     C        G         C
That e’er the sun shone on,

    Am           G   E
And dark blue is her e’e.

    E7  Am     F     C      E7
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,

    Am     G        C
I’d lay me doon and dee.
[Chorus]
C                    F
Maxwellton braes are bonnie,

      C              D7  G
Where early fa’s the dew.

         C                F
And it’s there that Annie Laurie,

C           G       C
Gied me her promise true.

C           G       C
Gied me her promise true,

      Am       G        E
Which ne’er forgot will be.

    E7  Am     F     C       E7
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,

    Am     G        C
I’d lay me doon and dee.
[Verse 2]
     C                F
Like dew on the gowan lying,

       C                D7   G
Is the fa’ of her fairy feet.

         C              F
And like wind in summer sighing,

    C        G       C
Her voice is low and sweet.

C            G       C
Her voice is low and sweet,

      Am     G        E
She’s a’ the world to me.

    E7  Am     F     C      E7
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,

    Am     G        C
I’d lay me doon and dee.

And it’s there that Annie Laurie,

C           G       C
Gied me her promise true.

C           G       C
Gied me her promise true,

      Am       G        E
Which ne’er forgot will be.

    E7  Am     F     C       E7
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,

    Am     G        C
I’d lay me doon and dee.
