[Intro] C F C C F C [Verse]
   F               C
If you had seen my Charlie at the head of an army

                 F          C
He was a gallant sight to behold

         F           C
With his fine tartan hose on his bonnie round leg

                    F            C
And his buckles all pure shining gold
[Verse]
C
The tartan my love wore was the finest Stuart Kilt

         F             C            F            C
With his soft skin all under it, as white as any milk

        F           C
It's no wonder that seven hundred highlanders killed

                F          C
In restoring my Charlie to me
[Verse]
   F                 C
My love was six foot two without stocking or shoe

                 F             C
In proportion my true love was built

       F          C
Like I told you before, upon Culloden Moor

                         F        C
Where the brave highland army was killed
[Verse]
C
Prince Charlie Stuart was my true love's name

           F         C             F            C
He was the flower of England and a pride to his name

        F             C
Ah, but now they have banished him over to Spain

                   F          C
And so dear was my Charlie to me
[Instrumental] C F C F C C F C C F C [Verse]
   F                 C
My love was six foot two without stocking or shoe

                 F             C
In proportion my true love was built

       F          C
Like I told you before, upon Culloden Moor

And so dear was my Charlie to me
