Em G Em D
The first place that I saw my love, it was at a ball

I looked at her, I gazed at her, far above them all

But aye she look-ed on me with scorn and disdain

And the bonny wee lassie's answer was to no come again
Was to no come again
Am C Em
And the bonny wee lassie's (Am)answer was to no come again
[Verse 2]

The next place that I saw my love, it was at a wake

I looked at her, I gazed at her, I thought my heart would break
G D
But aye she look-ed on me with scorn and disdain
G Am C G
And the bonnie wee lassie's answer was to no come again
Was to no come again

And the bonny wee lassie's answer was to not come again
[Verse 3]

It being six months after, a little or above
Em G Em D
When Cupid shot his arrow and he's wounded my true love

He's wounded her severely which caused her to complain
G Am C G
And she's wrote to me a letter sayin’ "You might come again"
Sayin' "You might come again"
Am C Em
And she wrote to me a letter, sayin' "You might come again"

So come all you pretty fair maids a warning take by me

You said "Don't come again"
Am C Em
And you'll aye mind the day that you said, "Don't come again"
