[Verse 1]
People
abode like a [Am]bird on [D]a wing
[G]onward the [Am]sailors [G]cry.
Carry the lad that's born [Am]to b[D]e king
[G]over [Em]the sea [Am]to Sk[G]ye.
Though [Em]the w[C]aves leap,

Rocked in the deep,
flor[Am]a will keep [Em]watch by
[Gaug]your weary [Em]head.

[G]Son of the sail[Am]or's [G]bride
Carry [Gaug]the lathered [C]bond to me, [D]King
[G]Over the sea [Am]to Sk[G]ye
Many's the lad [Am]fought on that day
[Em]Well, the clay[B]more could [Gaug]weep.[Em]
When the night came,
[C]Silen[Am]tly lay dea[Em]d On
[B]Cul[Gaug]loden S[Em]treet.
[G]Speed, bonny boat,
Like [Am]a bird on the [D]wing,
On[G]ward, the sail[Am]ors [G]cry.
Carry the lad [Gaug]that's b[C]orn to be [D]king
Over [G]the sea to Skye.
[Em]Bound at our [C]homes,
[Em]ex i[Am]le and d[F]eath,
[Am]Scattered [Em]the [B]loyal men[Em]
Yet [G]hail the sword cool [Am]in the sheath
[Em]Cheerly we'll come [Dsus4]again
[G]Sweet bonnie boat, like [Em]a bird [C]on a [G]ring,[D]
[G]Under the sail[Am]or's [G]crown.[Em][Dsus4]
[D]Carry [G]the lad that's [Am]born to [F]be king
[Am]over the [Dsus4]sea to Skye.[G][Em]
