Introdução:
G Bm
When I've done my work of day
C D G Em
And I row my boat away
C D G Em
Doon the waters o' Loch Tay
Am D D7
As the evening light is fadin'
G Bm
And I look upon Ben Lawers
C D G Em
Where the after glory glows
C D G Em
And I think on two bright eyes
Am D G
And the melting mouth below
C D G Em
She's my beauteous nighean ruach
C D G Em
She's my joy and sorrow too
C D G Em
And although she is untrue
Am D D7
Ah, but I cannot live without her
G Bm
For my heart's a boat in tow
C D Em
And I'd give the world to know
C D G Em
Why she means to let me go
Am D G
As I sing horee, horo
G Bm
Nighean ruach, your lovely hair
C D G Em
Has more glamour I declare
C D G Em
Than all the tresses rare
Am D D7
From Killen to Aberfeldy
G Bm
Be they lint, white, brown, or gold
C D G Em
Be they blacker than the sloe
C D G Em
They have no more worth to me
Am D G
Than a meltin flake o' snow
C D G Em
And her eyes are like the gleam
C D G Em
O' the sunlight on the stream
C D G Em
And the songs the faeries sing
Am D D7
Seem like songs she sings at milkin'
G Bm
But my heart is full of woe
C D Em
For last night she bade me go
C D G Em
And the tears begin to flow
Am D G
As I sing horee, horo
C D G Em
She's my beauteous nighean ruach
C D G Em
She's my joy and sorrow too
C D G Em
And although she is untrue
Am D D7
Ah, but I cannot live without her
G Bm
For my heart's a boat in tow
C D Em
And I'd give the world to know
C D G Em
Why she means to let me go
Am D G
As I sing horee, horo
