version 3
Intro: (Played on mandolin, but this is how it translates to guitar chords)
D Dsus4 D Bm Asus2 Bm Asus2 D
D
Well the hills are pretty and rollin'
F G D
But the thorn is sharp and swollen
D
And the man plays a beautiful whistle
F G D
But he wears a prickly thistle
D
Singing Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
F G D
Well A Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
D
Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
F G D
Well A Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
D
The silver birches pierce through an icy fog
F G D
Which covers the ground most daily
D
And the angels which carry St. Andrew high
F G D
Are singing a tune most gaily
D
One sound can hold back a thousand hands
F G D
When the pipe plays a tune forlorn
D
And the thistle is a prickly flower
F G D
Aye, But how it is sweetly worn
D
Singing Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
F G D
Well A Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
D
Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
F G D
Well A Li De Li De Li Oh Oh
