Am

[Verse]
     Am                            
Come all friends and companions and
 G           Am
 listen unto me
I'll sing tae you a song though, 
     C              Em
it's not with merry glee
   Am                              
It was concernin slighted love, the
                Em
 cause of all my waes
     Am                          
That maks me rue that e'er I come 
     G               Am
tae Edzell's Bonnie Braes

[Verse]
     Am                          
It's oft I've fed my fleecy flock 
      G                Am
doon by the North Esk stream
                              C    
By fickle fortune I was led untae a
        Em
 comely dame
    Am                             
Her beauty bright shone in my 
                       Em
sight, like Phoebus' shinin rays
      Am                           
Which maks me rue that e'er I come 
    G               Am
tae Edzell's Bonnie Braes

[Verse]
She seemed like fair Diana, in 
G                 Am
stature sweet and mild
And in my arms wis she to me, like 
C               Em
nature's darlin child
      Am                        
Baith night an morn ma hert doth 
         C                  Em
burn wi love, its flame in blaze
      Am                           
Which maks me rue that e'er I come 
    G               Am
tae Edzell's Bonnie Braes

[Verse]
I dearly loved that fair maid as I 
G               Am
dearly loved my life
I asked if she'd giee her consent 
    C            Em
tae be ma wedded wife
  Am                               
I asked her hand in wedlock bands, 
   C                Em
wi me tae spend her day
   Am                        
To which she had consented on

[Verse]
But now she's gone and left me, and 
G             Am
left me aa forlorn
Ma joys are turned tae grief baith 
C               Em
nicht and day I murn
    Am                             
But heaven will reward her weel for
               Em
 her deceitful ways
       Am                          
She'll mind the vows she made tae 
     G               Am
me on Edzell's Bonnie Braes

[Verse]
But while the crimson current flows,
 G            Am
 gently in my veins
There's no anither fair maid shall 
C            Em
win ma hert again
    Am                           
For single so I shall remain, til 
                   Em
death doth end my days
     Am                         
I'll murn for the lassie lost on 
 G               Am
