Song: The Road to Dundee
By:   Andy Stewart - Traditional

[intro:] Bb, Am, Gm, F

[verse: 1]
        F         Am           Bb              F
Cauld winter was howlin', o'er moor and o'er mountain
     Bb           Am           Gm           C
And wild was the surge, on the dark rolling sea
      F           Am        Bb            F
When just about daybreak, I met a young lassie,
     Bb           Am            Gm         F
Wha asked me the road, and the miles tae Dundee.

[verse: 2]
       F          Am         Bb             F
Said I' my young lassie, I canna' weel tell ye,
    Bb            Am          Gm         C
The road or the distance, I canna' weel gie,
     F        Am           Bb          F 
But gin ye permit me, tae gang a wee bittie,
     Bb           Am            Gm       F
I'd show you the road, and the miles tae Dundee.

[verse: 3]
    F         Am            Bb          F
At once she consented, she gied me her airm,
  Bb               Am              Gm          C
Ne'er a word did I speir, wha the lassie micht be
       F             Am         Bb          F
She appeared like an angel, in feature and form,
        Bb          Am            Gm       F
As she walked by my side, on the road to Dundee.

[verse: 4]
          F         Am                Bb            F
Then she took the gowd pin, from the scarf of her bosom,
      Bb           Am          Gm          C
Quoth she, tak ye this, in remembrance O' me",
       F        Am         Bb              F
Then bravely I bent, and kissed her sweet lips,
 Bb                Am          Gm        F
E'er I parted wi' her, On the road tae Dundee.


[verse: 5]
    F              Am         Bb         F 
So here's to that lassie, I ne'er can forget her
     Bb          Am            Gm         C
And ilka young laddie, wha's list'ning to me,
    F         Am         Bb             F
O never be a sweer, to convoy a young lassie
       Bb           Am             Gm      F
Though it's only to show her, the road to Dundee.
