[ G ] By yon bonnie banks and by [ C ] yon bonnie [ G ] braes
Where the sun shines bright on Loch [ C ] Lo [ D ] mond
Where [ C ] me and my [ G ] true love were [ C ] ever won't to [ D ] gae
On the [ G ] bonnie bonnie [ C ] banks of Loch [ D ] Lo [ G ] mond

Chorus
[ G ] Oh! Ye'll take the high road and [ C ] I'll take the [ G ] low road,
And I'll be in Scotland [ C ] afore [ D ] ye
But [ C ] me and my [ G ] true love will [ C ] never meet [ D ] again
On the [ G ] bonnie, bonnie [ C ] banks of Loch [ D ] Lo [ G ] mond

[ G ] 'Twas then that we parted in [ C ] yon shady [ G ] glen
On the steep steep side of Ben [ C ] Lo [ D ] mond
Where [ C ] in purple [ G ] hue the [ C ] highland hills we [ D ] view
And the [ G ] moon coming [ C ] out in the [ D ] gloam [ G ] ing Chorus
