Braw Sailin On The Sea by Kris Drever
Braw Sailin On The Sea
Kris Drever ususally uses double dropped D tuning for most of his songs but
this is tabbed for standard tuning (EADGBE) and i think sounds pretty good when
played with the record.
Capo on fret 3

D A
There cam' a letter yestreen
D A
The Ship man sailed the morn
Bm G F#m G
Alas, Cried the bonny lass
D A G
That ever I was born
CHORUS
D A
And it's Braw sailing on the sea
D A
When wind and weather's fair
Bm G F#m G
It's better tae be in my love's arms
D A G
Oh, gin I were there
chords for verses and chorus are the same from here
There cam a letter yestreen
Oor ship mon sail the morn
'Alas' cried the bonnie lass
That ever I was born
And it's braw sailin on the sea
When wind and weather's fair
It's better tae be in my love's airms
O gin that I were there
He's cam tae her fairm hoose
At twelve o'clock at noon
The lassie being proud-hearted
She would not let him in
And it's braw sailin on the sea
When wind and weather's fair
It's better tae be in my love's airms
O gin that I were there
He's taen the ring from his pocket
It cost him guineas three
Sayin 'Tak ye that my bonnie lass
And aye think weel o' me'
And she's taen the ring from her pocket
It cost her shillings nine
Sayin 'Tak ye that my bonnie lad
For I hae changed my mind'
And it's braw sailin on the sea
When wind and weather's fair
It's better tae be in my love's airms
