The Corries – Loch Lomond (Guitar)

C        Am    F         G
O wither away, my bonnie May

C                Am         F     G
Sae late an' sae far in the gloam-in'

F                Am        F            G
The mist gathers grey o'er moorland and brae

C            Am         G    C
O wither sae far are ye roam-in'?

C                Am             F             G
O ye'll tak' the high road, an’ I'll tak' the low

C          Am       F      G
I'll be in Scotland before ye

F             Am             F          G
For me and my true love will never meet again

C                     Am            G  C
By the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lo-mond

C            Am          F           G
O well may I weep for yestreen in my sleep

C                  Am           F  G
We stood bride and bridegroom toge-ther

F                    Am             F           G
But his arms and his breath were as cold as the death

C                         Am         G  C
And his heart's blood ran red on the heather

C            Am            F            G
I trusted my ain love last night in the broom

C                    Am     F    G
My Donald wha' loves me sae dear-ly

F                      Am        F           G
For the morrow he will march for Edinburgh toon,

C                 Am              G   C
Tae fecht for his King and Prince Charlie

C                Am             F             G
O ye'll tak' the high road, an’ I'll tak' the low

C          Am       F      G
I'll be in Scotland before ye

F             Am             F          G
For me and my true love will never meet again

C                     Am            G  C
By the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lo-mond

C               Am        F         G
As dauntless in battle as tender in love

C                  Am           F   G
He'd yield ne'er a foot tae the foe-man

F          Am            F           G
But never again frae the field o' the slain

C                     Am           G  C
Tae his Moira will he come by Loch Lo-mond

C               Am         F            G
The thistle may bloom, the King hae his ain

C                    Am          F     G
And fond lovers will meet in the gloam-in'

F                  Am        F         G
And me and my true love will yet meet again

C                    Am            F  G
Far above the bonnie banks of Loch Lo-mond

C                Am             F             G
O ye'll tak' the high road, an’ I'll tak' the low

C          Am       F      G
I'll be in Scotland before ye

F             Am             F          G
For me and my true love will never meet again

C                     Am            G  C
By the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lo-mond
