Misc Traditional – The Braes Of Balquhither (Guitar)

       G    C      G
Let us go, lassie, go

        C            G
To the braes o' Balquhither,

          C    Bm      Em
Where the blae-berries grow

           Am              C
'Mang the bonnie Highland heather;

       G         C       G
Where flie deer and the rae

         C          G
Lightly bounding together,

          C    Bm     Em
Sport the lang summer day

        Am           C
On the braes o' Balquhither.

        G     C      G
I will twine thee a bower,

        C             G
By the clear siller fountain,

         C Bm     Em
And I'll cover it o'er

          Am            C
Wi' the flowers o' the mountain;

        G      C          G
I will range through the wilds,

         C              G
And the deep glens sae dreary,

           C   Bm    Em
And return wi' their spoils.

        Am          C
To the bower o' my deary.

          G    C      G
When the rude wintry win'

       C              G
Idly raves round our dwelling,

        C    Bm     Em
And the roar of the linn

        Am              C
On the night breeze is swelling,

    G    C        G
So merrily we'll sing,

         C            G
As the storm rattles o'er us,

          C    Bm       Em
'Till the dear sheeling ring

         Am            C
Wi' the light lilting chorus.

         G     C     G
Now the summer is in prime,

         C              G
Wi' the flowers richly blooming,

        C    Bm       Em
And the wild mountain thyme

        Am           C
A' the moorlands perfuming;

        G    C      G
To our dear native scenes

        C         G
Let us journey together,

           C Bm      Em
Where glad innocence reigns

           Am           C
'Mang the braes o' Balquhither.

       G    C      G
Let us go, lassie, go

        Am            C
To the braes o' Balquhither.

       G    C      G 
Let us go, lassie, go...
