[Verse 1]
   C              F
As I rode down by Brig O Dye
    G                C
And past yon hill o' broom
  F                 C
A maiden sang right merrily
     F               G
Just as the sun gaed doon

[Chorus]
         F                 C
Sayin', "Cairn O' Mount is bleak and
 bare
    Dm7                 G
And cauld lies Clach na Benn
    C       F                  Am
And you can see the snow lyin' there
 Dm7               F
Along the summer's end"

[Verse 2]
        C              F
Well, I lighted off my dapple grey
    G             C
And walked by her side
         F             C
Sayin', "Lassie, I hae lost my way
 F                 G
Upon your moor sae wide
    F              C
Oh, war me o' your face sae fair
    F             G
Yer een sae bonny blue
        C       F              Am
An' the longest day I blithely share
    Dm7              F
Tae kiss your cherry moo

[Chorus]
         F                 C
Sayin', "Cairn O' Mount is bleak and
 bare
    Dm7                 G
And cauld lies Clach na Benn
    C       F                  Am
And you can see the snow lyin' there
 Dm7               F
Along the summer's end"

[Verse 3]
   C               F
Oh lassie, will ye gan wi' me
    G                     C
And leave yer cauld richt glen?
    F                C
Wi' a' my kin, ye'll bear the gree
        F                    G
There's wealth baith but and ben
    F                C
Wi' silks and satins busket braw
    F               G
And ribbons fer yer hair
    C         F              Am
And maids tae answer when ye ca'
   Dm7             F
So can ye wish for mair?

Oh, lassie, ye maun think awhile
   G                 C
My lands are far and wide

I've gold in banks and ships at sea

So come and be my bride

Oh, lassie, think yer Donald's poor
    G                 C
Has neither horse nor coo

A shepherd stragglin' ower the moor

Is no' a match for you"

    G               C
You throw yer love awa'
    F             C
Yer Donald brally kens himsel'
     F               G
Last gloamins what I saw
   F             C
As I rode by his shielin' door

I spied a heiland maid

It's he's thrown off his laland 
dress

Combed doon his yellow hair
