Danú - The wee lass on the brae

Once ^GI roved out on a ^Cfine summer's ^Gday The fields were in blossom, and the^C meadows were ^Ggay I ^Dspied a wee lassie tripping ^Go'er the ^Dgreen I ^Gtook her for ^CHelen, that ^GGrecian queen That ^DGrecian queen, that ^CGrecian queen I ^Gtook her for Helen, that ^CGrecian qu^Dee^Gn ^{Am7 G D C D G}

She's ad^Gmired by others, I ^Cknow them right ^Gwell Every morning to view that sweet ^Cspot where she ^Gdwells Be^Dneath the hawthorn at the ^Gbrink on yon ^Dhill May ^Gshe never marry, but ^Cthink on me ^Gstill Oh, ^Dthink on me still, oh, ^Cthink on me still May ^Gshe never marry, but ^Cthink on me st^Dil^Gl ^{Am7 G D}

My ^Gparents died on me, 'tis ^Call for their ^Gsake And oft times it causes my ^Cpoor heart to ^Gbreak But the ^Dmore I think on them, the ^Gmore I will ^Dsay There's ^Gno one will be mine, but the ^Cwee lass on the ^Gbrae Wee ^Dlass on the brae, wee ^Class on the brae There's ^Gno one will be mine, but the wee ^Class on the brae

Oh and ^Gfaith, there's a de^Ccline over yon far-off ^Gsky 'Tis off to my darling, like ^Clightning I'll ^Gfly If the ^Dnight were as long as a ^Glong summer's ^Dday I'd ^Gcheerfully sit with my wee ^Class on the ^Gbrae Wee ^Dlass on the brae, wee ^Class on the brae I'd ^Gcheerfully sit with my wee ^Class on the br^Dae^{G Am7 G D}

So ^Gfare thee well, darling, I ^Clove you the ^Gbest And may you be happy and ^Cmay you be ^Gblessed And ^Dmay you think on me when ^GI'm far ^Daway For there's ^Gno one will be mine, but the wee ^Class on the ^Gbrae Wee ^Dlass on the brae, wee ^Class on the brae There's ^Gno one will be mine, but the wee ^Class on the brae
