Cold the wind on the moors blow
Em D C Bm
Warm the enemy's fire glows
G Am C Em
Black the harvest of Culloden
C Bm C Em
Pain and fear and death grow

C D C G
'Twas love of our prince drove us on to Drumossie
Em Bm C
But in scarcely the time that it takes me to tell

The flower of our country lay scorched by an army
Em Bm C
As ruthless and red as the embers of hell
[Chorus]

Cold the wind on the moors blow
Em D C Bm
Warm the enemy's fire glows

Black the harvest of Culloden

[Verse 2]
C D C G
Red Campbell the Fox did the work of the English
Em Bm C
MacDonald in anger, did no work at all
D C G
With musket and cannon 'gainst honour and courage
Em Bm C
The invader's men stood, while our clansmen did fall
[Chorus]
Em D C Bm
Cold the wind on the moors blow
Em D C Bm
Warm the enemy's fire glows

Black the harvest of Culloden

C D C G
Now mothers and children are left to their weeping
Em Bm C
With only the memory of father and son
D C G
Turned out of their homes to make shelter for strangers
Em Bm C
The blackest of hours on this land has begun
[Chorus]
Em D C Bm
Cold the wind on the moors blow
Em D C Bm
Warm the enemy's fire glows
G Am C Em
Black the harvest of Culloden
C Bm C Em
Pain and fear and death grow
