Liam Clancy - The Loch Tay Boat Song
[INTRO:] G Bm C G C G D G
[VERSE 1:]
When I've done my work of Bmday
And I Crow my boat aGway
Down the Cwaters of Loch GTay
As the Devening light is D7fading
And I Ggaze upon Ben BmLawers
Where the Cafter glory Gglows
And I Cthink on two bright Geyes
And the melting Dmouth beGlow
[VERSE 2:]
She's my Cbeauteous nighean Gruach
My Cjoy and sorrow Gtoo
And Cif she prove unGtrue
Well, I Dcannot live without her
For my Gheart's a boat in Bmtow
And I'd Cgive the world to Gknow
Why she Cmeans to let me Ggo
As I sing hiDlee, hiGlo
[INSTRUMENTAL:] G Bm C G C G D G
[VERSE 3:]
Nighean ruach, your lovely Bmhair
Has more Cglamour, I deGclare
Than Call the tresses Grare
'Tween DKillen and AberD7feldy
Be they Glint, white, brown or Bmgold
Be they Cblacker than the Gsloe
They are Cno more worth to Gme
Than a melting Dflake of Gsnow
[VERSE 4:]
And her Ceyes are like the Ggleam
Like the Csunlight on the Gstream
And the Csongs the faeries Gsing
Are like Dsongs she sings at milking
But my Gheart is full of Bmwoe
For last Cnight she bade me Ggo
And the Ctears begin to Gflow
As I sing hiDlee, hiGlo
[INSTRUMENTAL:] G Bm C G C G D D7 G Bm C G C G D G
[VERSE 5:]
Her Ceyes are like the Ggleam
The Csunlight on the Gstream
And the Csongs the faeries Gsing
Are like Dsongs she sings at milking
But my Gheart is full of Bmwoe
For last Cnight she bade me Ggo
And the Ctears begin to Gflow
As I sing hiDlee, hiGlo
