[Verse 1]
   G        Em   C      G
Go bring to me a pint o wine,

The boat rocks at the Pier o' Leith,

And I maun leave my bonnie Mary.

The glittering spears are ranked and ready,

The sounds o' war are heard afar,

The battle rages deep and bloody.

[Verse 3]
     G       Em      C      G
It's not the roar o' sea or shore,

Wad make me want tae langer tarry;

    G         Em         C      G
Nor sounds o' war that's heard afar-

      C      Em       Am      D
It's leaving thee, my bonnie Mary!
