THE BLUE BELLS OF SCOTLAND
Trad. Scottish folk song
John McDermott
Key: D

-3  -5     5*  -4  -3
Oh where, tell me where 
-4 5*-5  -2*  -2*  3   2   -1
is your high-land lad-die gone? 
-3  -5     5*  -4  -3
Oh where, tell me where 
-4 5*-5  -2*  -2*  3   2   -1
is your high-land lad-die gone?

 -3   -2* -1   -2*   -3  -5   -4 
He's gone wi’ stream-ing ban-ners, 
5* -5 5* -3   -4    3*  -3
where no-ble deeds are done. 
-4   5*  -5  5* -4  -3
And it's oh, in my heart, 
-45*-5 -2* -2*  3   2   -1
I     wish him safe at home.
