The Weavers

C

                               F          C
We're all met together here to sit and to crack
                                     F             G
Wi' our glasses in our hands and our work upon our back
        C                              F           C
There's nae a trade among 'em that can mend or can mak
                                  G  C
If it was'nae for the work of the weavers

                      G        Am             Em
If it was'nae for the weavers, what would you do
   F             C              F          G
Ya would'nae hae clothes that's made outta wool
   C               G           F            C
Ya would'nae hae a coat o' the black or the blue
                                  G  C
If it was'nae for the work of the weavers

                             F                 C
Some folk are independent of other tradesmen's work
                             F              G
The women need no barber and dykers need no cleft
    C                             F         C
But none of them can do without a coat or a sack
                                      G  C
No, they can'nae wand the work of the weavers

                      G        Am             Em
If it was'nae for the weavers, what would you do
   F             C              F          G
Ya would'nae hae clothes that's made outta wool
   C               G           F            C
Ya would'nae hae a coat o' the black or the blue
                                  G  C
If it was'nae for the work of the weavers

                                         F            C
There's soldiers and there's sailors and glaziers and all
                                          F                 G
There's doctors and there's ministers and them that live by law
        C                                F             C
And our friends in Sooth America, though them we never saw
                                     G  C
But we ken they wear the work of the weavers

                      G        Am             Em
If it was'nae for the weavers, what would you do
   F             C              F          G
Ya would'nae hae clothes that's made outta wool
   C               G           F            C
Ya would'nae hae a coat o' the black or the blue
                                  G  C
If it was'nae for the work of the weavers

                            F         C
The weavin' is a trade that never can fail
                                  F            G
As long as we need clothes for to keep another hale
   C                          F              C
So let us all be merry o'er a bicker o' good ale
                                     G  C
And we'll drink to the health of the weavers

                      G        Am             Em
If it was'nae for the weavers, what would you do
   F             C              F          G
Ya would'nae hae clothes that's made outta wool
   C               G           F            C
Ya would'nae hae a coat o' the black or the blue
                                  G  C
If it was'nae for the work of the weavers
