Yestre'en the Queen had four Marys
               Em        G
Tonicht she'll hae but three
           F   G         Em   C
There was Mary Seaton and Mary Beaton
Am       G          C
Mary Carmichael and me
C                F       C
Oh little did my mother think
             Em     G
The day she cradled me
    F       G       Em     C
The lands I was tae travel in
     Am     G       C
The death I was tae die
C               F        C
Oh tie a napkin round my e'en
           Em     G
No let me see to die
    F        G        Em      C
And send nae word tae my dear mother
      Am       G         C
Who's far awa' o'er the sea
C                              F        C
But I wish I could lie in oor ain kirk yard
            Em       G
Beneath yon old oak tree
         F          G
Where we pulled the rowans
    Em         C
And strung the gowans
   Am           G            C
My brothers and sisters and me
C                            F   C

C                       F         C
But why should I fear a nameless grave
                    Em    G
When I've hopes for eternity
         F             G       Em     C
And I'll pray that the faith o'dying quick
   Am            G         C
Be given through grace to me
C                            F   C
