Tom: C#m

          C#m                A           E           B
Well the first place that I met my love it was at a ball
    C#m              A           E           B
I looked at her, I stared at her, far above them all

    E                                       A
But aye she looked on me with scorn and disdain
         C#m                B             A         E
And the bonnie wee lassie's answer was to no come again
A    E         A
Was to no come again
         C#m                B             A         C#m
And the bonnie wee lassie's answer was to no come again

[Verse 2]
          C#m                A           E           B
Well the next place that I met my love it was at a wake
   C#m              A                 E                     B
I looked at her, I stared at her, I thought me heart would break

    E                                       A
But aye she looked on me with scorn and disdain
         C#m                B             A         E
And the bonnie wee lassie's answer was to no come again
A    E         A
Was to no come again
         C#m                B             A         C#m
And the bonnie wee lassie's answer was to no come again

[Verse 3]
    C#m                A        E       B
It being six month after, a little or above
     C#m            A           E             B
When Cupid shot his arrow and wounded my true love

      E                                            A
He's wounded her severely which caused her to complain
        C#m            B                  A           E
And she wrote to me a letter saying: You might come again
A            E            A
Saying: You might come again
         C#m           B                  A          C#m
And she wrote to me a letter saying: You might come again

[Verse 4]
          C#m             A       E              B
Well, I wrote back her an answer for to let her know
      C#m              A           E               B
While life was in me body 'twas there I would nae go

       E                                       A
While life was in me body and while it does remain
       C#m           B             A            E
I will aye mind the girl who said: Don't come again
A          E           A
She said: Don't come again
           C#m           B             A           C#m
Yes I will aye mind the girl who said: Don't come again

[Verse 5]
        C#m             A            E               B
So come all you pretty fair maids a warning take by me
C#m             A             E          B
Never slight a young man wherever he may be

     E                                                 A
For if you do you're sure to rue and cause you to complain
          C#m           B                  A           E
And you'll aye rue the day that you said: Don't come again
A          E           A
You said: Don't come again
           C#m           B                  A           C#m
Yes you'll aye rue the day that you said: Don't come again
