-4 5   6  -6  -7     -6  6  -6  -6 6   5
By yon bonnie banks, and by yon bonnie braes,

-4    5   6   6      6      -7 -8   8 -8
Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond,

-8 8  8   -8   -7      -8 7 -7 -6    6    5
Oh we two have passed, so many blithesome days,

-4 5   6  6    -7 -8  8     -8 -7   -6 6
On the bonnie, bonnie banks O' Loch Lo-mond.


CHORUS

-4 5 6     6    -6  -7   -7   -6  6    6    5   -4  -4
O--h ye'll take the high road and I'll take the low road,

5   6    6  6  6   -7   -8 8    -8
An' I'll be in Scotland be-fore ye',

-8  8   8  -8 -7    -8 7   -7 -6   6 5
But woe is my heart un-til we meet a-gain,

-4 5   6  6    -7 -8  8     -8 -7   -6 6
On the Bonnie, bonnie banks O' Loch Lo-mond.


VERSE 2
 
-4 6    6     -6 -7 -6  6  -6  -6 6  5
I- mind where we parted in yon shady glen,

-4 5   6      6     6    -7 -8  8 -8
On the steep, steep side O' Ben Lomond,

-8    8  8  -8  -7   -8  7   -7   -6    6  5
Where in purple hue, the highland hills we view,

-4  5   6    -7     -8  8    -8 -7 -6  6
And the morn shines out Frae the-- gloaming.


REPEAT CHORUS


VERSE 3

-4  6   6    -6  -7    -6  6   -6   -6 6    5
The wee bird may sing, an' the wild flowers spring;

-4  5  6  6     6   6 -7   -8  8   -8
An' in sunshine the waters are sleeping,

-8  8   8  -8  -7     -8 7    -7  -6 6    5
But the broken heart, it sees nae se-cond spring,

-4  5   6     -7   -8 8   -8  -7    -6  6
And the world does na ken how we're grieving.
