The Corries – The Lowlands Of Holland (Guitar)

C                          F/A         C              Am
My love has built a bonnie ship and he set her on the sea

C                          F/A        C        G    C
With seven score guid mariners for to bear her company

C              G        F/A      C        F/A         C       Am
There is three score is sunk my lads, and three score dead at sea;

        F/A  C                  F/A       C
And the lowlands o' Holland hae twined my love and me

C                         F/A          C              Am
My love, he built another ship, and he set her on the main

C                       F/A          C         G      C
Wi' none but twenty mariners for tae bring her safely hame;

C             G      F/A    C         F/A   C      Am
But the weary wind began to rise, the sea began to roull

   F/A       C                          F/A   C
My love then and his bonnie ship turned withershins about

C                                F/A       C                Am
There'll neither coif come on my head, nor comb come tae my hair;

C                                   F/A         C     G         C
There shall neither coal nor candle-light shine in my bower nae mair;

C          G     F/A    C     F/A     C     Am
Nor will I love another one until the day I dee

      F/A   C                         F/A           C
For I never loved a love but ane, and he is drowned in the sea

C
O haud yer tongue, my daughter dear, be still and be content;

C
There are mair lads in Gallowa’, ye needna sair lament

C
O, there is nane in Gallowa’, there's nane at a' for me

C
For I never loved a love but ain, and he is drowned in the sea
