THE WORK OF THE WEAVERS
Scottish folk song
Key: G

 -5   -5  -5  -5  -5  -5  -5
We’re all met to-geth-er here
-5  6   7  7   -5
To sit and to crack
-4   5   -5   -5 -5 -5   -5
Wi’ our glass-es in our hands
-5  -5   -5  -5 -8 -8   -7
And our work up on our back
-4     5    -5 -5  -5  -5  -5   -5
And there’s nae a trade a-mong ‘em
 -5  -5  6   6    7    7  -5
That can ei-ther mend nor mak’
-4 5  -5  -5   6   6   -5  -8  8   -7   7
If it was-na’ for the work of the weav-ers
7  -7 -8  -8  -8  -8   -7  -7
If it was-na’ for the weav-ers
 7     7    7  -6*
What would they do
6    6   6    -5    7    8   8  -8   -7
We would-na’ have cloth made of our wool
-5  -5   -5   -4 -4  -5
We would-na’ have a coat,
 6   6     7    7   -5
Nei-ther black nor blue
-4      5  -5  -5   6   6   -5
Gin(if) it was-na’ for the work
-8 -8   -7   7
Of the weav-ers
