The Lass Of Loch Royal

   F                                            C
I am a King's daughter come straight from Cappoquin
     F              C          Bb             C
In search of Lord Gregory, may God I'll find him

     F                                               C
The rain beats at my yellow locks, the dew wets me still
     F                  C                 Bb           C
The babe is cold in my arms, love, Lord Gregory let me in

       F                                             C
Lord Gregory is not here and he henceforth can't be seen
          F              C                Bb            C
For he's gone to bonny Scotland to bring home his new queen

 F                                         C
Leave now these windows and likewise this hall
          F           C            Bb            C
For it's deep in the sea you will find your downfall

          F                                      C
Do you remember, Lord Gregory, as we sat at the wine?
F             C        Bb                 C
We exchanged rings and aye, the best was mine

  F                                           C
Yours was the purest gold and mine but false tin
  F               C               Bb                   C
Yours it cost a guinea, love, but aye, 'twas false within

          F                                         C
Do you remember, Lord Gregory, that night in Cappoquin?
      F            C              Bb              C
You stole away my maidenhead and sore against my will

    F                                  C
So open these windows, open and let me in
     F                C                    Bb                 C
The rain rains on my good clothing and the dew stands on my chin

F C F C Bb C

F                                           C
I have built a bonny boat all covered with pearl
        F            C                Bb             C
And at every needle tuck in it there hangs a silver bell

          F                                                 C
But I'll take down that mast of gold and set up a mast of tree
        F                  C             Bb          C
For it does not suit a forsaken maid to sail so royally

          F                                         C
And I'll leave now these windows and likewise this hall
          F           C          Bb          C
For it's deep in the sea I will find my downfall
