   G        Em   C      G
Go bring to me a pint o wine,

    C       Em   Am     D
And fill it in a silver tassie;

G          Em     C        G
That I may drink, before I go,

  C       Em    Am     D
A service to my bonnie lassie:

[Chorus]


    G          Em     C       G
The boat rocks at the Pier o' Leith,

    C        Em         Am    
Fu' loud the wind blaws frae the 

    D
Ferry,

    G          Em     C       D
The ship rides by the Berwick-law,

    C      Em       Am     D
And I maun leave my bonnie Mary.

[Verse 2]


    G        Em     C       
The trumpets sound, the banner 

    G
flares,

    C          Em          Am    
The glittering spears are ranked 

     D
and ready,

    G         Em      C      G
The sounds o' war are heard afar,

    C      Em     Am       D
The battle rages deep and bloody.

The boat rocks at the Pier o' Leith,

The ship rides by the Berwick-law,

And I maun leave my bonnie Mary.

[Verse 3]


     G       Em      C      G
It's not the roar o' sea or shore,

    C       Em        Am      D
Wad make me want tae langer tarry;

    G         Em         C      G
Nor sounds o' war that's heard afar-

      C      Em       Am      D
It's leaving thee, my bonnie Mary!

[Chorus]
