[verse 1]
D                G             D
The Elfin Knight stands on yon hill 

A                      G        D
He blows his horn both loud and shrill

D            A            G         D
He stands so proud and he stands so still

[chorus]

A                  G     D
Blow winds blow my bonny o

A                  G   D
Blow winds blow my bonny 

A                  G     D
Blow winds blow my bonny o

A                  G   D
Blow winds blow my bonny 

[verse 2]

D                      G             D
The Fire-Headed Knight stands on yon ground

A                 G             D
My true love then surely I have found,

D            A            G         D
Down to the church then soon we will be bound


[chorus]

A                  G     D
Blow winds blow my bonny o

A                  G   D
Blow winds blow my bonny 

A                  G     D
Blow winds blow my bonny o

A                  G   D
Blow winds blow my bonny 

[verse 3]

D                           G             D
You'll make me a dress with seams of fine thread

A                    G              D
Make me a garland of flowers for my head 

D            A            G         D
Down to the church, then away we'll go to bed 

[chorus]

A                  G     D
Blow winds blow my bonny o

A                  G   D
Blow winds blow my bonny 

A                  G     D
Blow winds blow my bonny o

A                  G   D
Blow winds blow my bonny

He stands so proud and he stands so still
