[Intro] G D C G Em D C G [Verse 1]
G                   D      C              G
Flow gently sweet Afton, among thy green braes

       Em         D            C           G
Flow gently I'll sing thee, a song in thy praise,

             D             C        G
My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream

       Em           D       C              G
Flow gently sweet Afton, disturb not her dream
[Instrumental] G D C G Em D C G [Verse 2]
                       D       C                G
Thou stock-dove whose echo, resounds thro' the glen

    Em               D           C          G
Ye wild whistling blackbirds in yon thorny den,

  G                   D      C              G
Thou green-crested lapwing, thy screaming forebear

       Em           D       C              G
oh I charge you disturb not my slumbering fair
[Chorus]
G                  D          C          G
How lofty, sweet Afton, thy neighboring hills

      Em               D         C             D
Far mark'd with the courses of clear winding rills,

        G       D         C          G
There daily I wander, as noon rises high

     Em           D            C         D
My flocks and my Mary's sweet cot in my eye
[Verse 3]
  G                D         C            G
How pleasant thy banks and green valleys below

       Em           D              C        G
Where wild in the woodlands, the primroses blow,

  G                  D       C              G
There oft as mild evening, sweeps over the lea

     Em            D               C       G
The sweet scented birk, shades my Mary and me
[Instrumental] G D C G Em D C G [Verse 4]
       G             D      C              G
Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes

       Em         D           C           G
Flow gently I'll sing thee, a song in thy praise,

     G       D             C        G
My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream

        Em          D       C              G
Flow gently sweet Afton, disturb not her dream
[Outro] G D C G Em D C G
