Chorus

(D)Come now, (A7)gather now, (D)here where the flowers grow

(G)White is the (D)blossom as the (G)snow on the (A7)ben

(D)Here now (A7)freedom's call (D)we'll make a solemn vow

(G)Now by the (D)roses of Prince (A7)Char(D)lie

 

(D)Fight again at Bannockburn, your (A7)battleaxe to wield

(G)Fight wi’ your (D)grandsires, on (G)Flodden’s bloody (A7)field

(D)Fight at Culloden, the (A7)bonnie prince to shield

(G)Fight by the (D)roses of Prince (A7)Char(D)lie

 

Chorus

 

(D)Spirits o' the banished, in (A7)far and distant lands

(G)Carved out a (D)new world, wi' (G)sweat blood and (A7)hands

Re(D)turn now in glory, and (A7)on the silver sand

(G)Fight by the (D)roses of Prince (A7)Char(D)lie

 

Chorus

 

Tak' ye (D)strength by the green fields, that (A7)blanket peats and coal

(G)Ships frae the (D)Clyde, have a (G)nation in their (A7)hold

The (D)Water o' Life, some men (A7)need tae make them bold

(G)Black gold and (D)fishes frae the (A7)sea, (D)man

 

Chorus
