Tonight there'll be but Gthree
There was FMary CSeaton and FMary CBeaton

And put on her braw silk Ggown
But aFll Cthe thanks I've gFot tConight

Is to be hanged in Edinburgh Town.
CFull often have I dressed my Queen
Put gold upon her Ghair
But FI have Cgot for Fmy Creward
G C G-C
The gallows to be my share.
COh, little did my mother know
The day she cradled Gme
The Fland CI was to Ftravel Cin
G C G-C
The death I was to dee.
COh, happy, happy is the maid
That's born of beauty Gfree
Oh, it Fwas my Crosy, Fdimpled Ccheeks

CThey'll tie a kerchief around my eyes
That I may not see to Gdee
And they'll Fnever Ctell my Ffather or Cmother
G C G-C
But that I'm across the sea.
