[Verse 1]
                              F
Fareweel tae a' wir' Scottish fame
             C       Am
Fareweel oor ancient glory
                          F
Fareweel tae our Scottish name
                  C       Am
That's praised in martial story
        C                            F
Noo the Sark, it runs tae the Solway sands
          G            Am
Tweed, it runs tae the ocean
    C                             F
Tae mark where England's province stands
       C                     Am
Sic' a parcel o' rogues in a nation

[Verse 2]
                                  F
What force nor guile could not subdue
             C       Am
Through many warlike ages
                           F
Is wrought now by a coward few
             C         Am
For hireling traitor's wages
        C                         F
Oh, the English steel we could disdain
        G        Am
Safe in valour's station
         C                         F
Aye, but English gold has been oor bain
       C                     Am
Sic' a parcel o' rogues in a nation

[Verse 3]
                                  F
Oh, would or could I hae seen the day
             C      Am
That treason thus befell us
                              F
My aul' grey heid hae lien in clay
              C     Am
Wi' Bruce and loyal Wallace
         C                           F
Aye, wi' pith and power 'til my last hour
               G    Am
I'll mak' this declaration
        C                           F
We were bought and sold for English gold
       C                     Am
Sic' a parcel o' rogues in a nation
