A Scottish Soldier

(início)

            C
There was a soldier a Scottish soldier
             G                      C
Who wandered far away and soldiered far away
There was none bolder with good broad shoulder
               G                          C
He's fought in many a fray and fought and won
He'd seen the glory and told the story
           G                     C
Of battles glorious and deeds victorious
But now he's sighing his heart is crying
               G                C
To leave these green hills of Tyrol
Chorus
C              F                   C
Because these green hills are not highland hills
       G                        C
Or the island hills they're not my land's hills
            F                   C
And fair as these green foreign hills may be
         G                C     F C G C
They are not the hills of home
Verse 2
             C
And now this soldier this Scottish soldier
             G                      C
Who wandered far away and soldiered far away
Sees leaves are falling and death is calling
            G                     C
And he will fade away in that far land
                 D
He called his piper his trusty piper
             G                     C
And bade him sound a lay a pibroch sad to play
Upon a hill-side a Scottish hillside
             G                C
Not on these green hills of Tyrol
Chorus
C              F                   C
Because these green hills are not highland hills
       G                        C
Or the island hills they're not my land's hills
            F                   C
And fair as these green foreign hills may be
         G                C     F C G C
They are not the hills of home
Verse 3
            C
And so this soldier this Scottish soldier
            G                       C
Will wander far no more and soldier far no more
And on a hillside a Scottish hillside
                G                      C
You'll see that piper play his soldier home
He's seen the glory he's told the story
           G                  C
Of battles glorious and deeds victorious
The bugles cease now he is at peace now
               G                C
Far from those green hills of Tyrol
Chorus
C              F                   C
Because these green hills are not highland hills
       G                        C
Or the island hills they're not my land's hills
            F                   C
And fair as these green foreign hills may be
         G                C
They are not the hills of home
Chorus
C              F                   C
Although those green hills are not highland hills
       G                        C
Or the island hills they're not my land's hills
            F                   C
And fair as these green foreign hills may be
         G                C
They are not the hills of home
Chorus
C     F                   C
Those green hills are not highland hills
       G                        C
Or the island hills they're not my land's hills
            F                   C
And fair as these green foreign hills may be
         G                C     F C G C
They are not the hills of home
