[Intro] G [Chorus]
    G                 C
Maxwellton braes are bonnie,

      G               D7
Where early fa's the dew,

           G               C
And it's there that Annie Laurie

      G       D       G
Gave me her promise true.

      G       D       G
Gave me her promise true,

       G        D7       G
Which ne'er forgot will be,

               C      G
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,

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

       G               D7
Her throat is like a swan,

     G              C
Her face it is the fairest

     G         D        G
That e'er the sun shone on.

     G         D        G
That e'er the sun shone on,

     G         D7    G
And dark blue is her ee,

               C      G
And for bonnie Annie Laurie

   G      D        G
I lay me doon and dee.
[Chorus]
    G                 C
Maxwellton braes are bonnie,

      G               D7
Where early fa's the dew,

           G               C
And it's there that Annie Laurie

      G       D       G
Gave me her promise true.
[Verse 2]
      G                C
Like dew on th' gowan lying,

        G                D7
Is the fa' o' her fairy feet,

          G               C
And like winds in summer sighing

     G        D       G
Her voice is low and sweet.

      G       D        G
Her voice is low and sweet,

      G           D7       G
And she's a' the world to me,

               C      G
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,

   G      D        G
I lay me doon and dee.
[Chorus]
    G                 C
Maxwellton braes are bonnie,

      G               D7
Where early fa's the dew,

           G               C
And it's there that Annie Laurie

      G       D       G
Gave me her promise true.

      G       D       G
Gave me her promise true,

       G        D7       G
Which ne'er forgot will be,

               C      G
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,

   G       D       G
I lay me doon and dee.
