Tom: Bb
[Intro] Bb F Eb Dm Gm
Gm
A soldier lad came here last night
F
With riding he was weary
Gm Dm
A soldier lad came here last night
Bb C Gm
And the moon was shining clearly
Gm
Bonnie lassie will you gang with me
F
Bonnie lass, will you lie near me
Gm Dm
I'll get all your ribbons reel
Bb C Gm
In the morning ere i leave ye
( Bb F Eb Dm Gm )
Gm
She takes the trooper by the hand
F
And leads him to her chamber
Gm Dm
She's given him some wine to drink
Bb C Gm
And his live it flared like tinder
Gm
Bonnie lassie will you gang with me
F
Bonnie lass, will you lie near me
Gm Dm
I'll get all your ribbons reel
Bb C Gm
In the morning ere i leave ye
( Bb F Eb Dm Gm )
Gm
They had not been in bed an hour
F
An hour but scarce a quarter
Gm Dm
When the drums came sounding up the street
Bb C Gm
And then the beat was shorter
Gm
For its up, up, up, our colonel cried
F
Its up up up and away, then
Gm Dm
And its up, up, up, our colonel cried
Bb C Gm
The morn's our battle day then
Gm
Bonnie lassie will you gang with me
F
Bonnie lass, will you lie near me
Gm Dm
I'll get all your ribbons reel
Bb C Gm
In the morning ere i leave ye
( Bb F Eb Dm Gm )
Gm
Its when will you come back again
F
My own dear soldier laddie
Gm Dm
When will you come back again
Bb C
And be your bairnie's daddy
Gm
Oh hold your tongue my bonnie wee lass
F
Never let this parting grieve thee
Gm Dm
When heather cows grow oxen bows
Bb C
Bonnie lassie ill come see ye
Gm
Bonnie lassie will you gang with me
F
Bonnie lass, will you lie near me
Gm Dm
I'll get all your ribbons reel
Bb C Gm
In the morning ere i leave ye
Gm
Bonnie lassie will you gang with me
F
Bonnie lass, will you lie near me
Gm Dm
I'll get all your ribbons reel
Bb C Gm
In the morning ere i leave ye
( Bb F Eb Dm Gm )
