Loch Lomond by Runrig 




                Loch Lomond 






[Verse]

G             Em         C             D
By yon bonnie banks, and by yon bonnie braes
G                    Em             C  D 
Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lo-mond
G               Em              C          D
There me and my true love spent many happy days
G                     C             D  G
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lo-mond.


[Chorus]

G              Em                 C             D
Oh, ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low road
G              Em       C      D
And I'll be in Scotland before ye
G             Em             C          D
But me and my true love will never meet again
G                     C             D  G
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lo-mond.


[Verse]

G             Em         C             D
'Twas there that we parted in yon shady glen,
G             Em         C             D
On the steep, steep side o' Ben Lomon',
G             Em         C             D
Where in purple hue the Hieland hills we view,
G                     C             D  G
An' the moon comin' out in the gloamin'.


[Chorus]

G              Em                 C             D
Oh, ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low road
G              Em       C      D
And I'll be in Scotland before ye
G             Em             C          D
But me and my true love will never meet again
G                     C             D  G
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lo-mond.


[Verse]

G             Em         C             D
The wee birdies sing and the wild flow'rs spring,
G             Em         C             D
And in sunshine the waters are sleepin';
G             Em         C             D
But the broken heart it kens nae second spring,
G                     C             D  G
Tho' the waefu' may cease frae their greetin'


[Chorus]

G              Em                 C             D
Oh, ye'll tak' the high road, and I'll tak' the low road
G              Em       C      D
And I'll be in Scotland before ye
G             Em             C          D
But me and my true love will never meet again
G                     C             D  G
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lo-mond.
