[Eb]
[G] [Eb]
When I first came to this country in 1849
I saw many fair [G] women but I never saw mine
Oh, I viewed them all [Eb] and me saw that [C] I was quite [Eb] alone
Oh me, a [Bb] lonely Scotsman just a long [Eb] ways from home
I was forced from my homeland I was made far to go
And I miss the purple heather [C] and the grey mountain skull
Oh, I've [Ab] travelled over [D] oceans [Bb] and valleys so [F] wide
Without you darling sire, oh my love, by [Eb] my side
[Bb] Oh, [Cm] [Gm]
[Eb]
I wish I was a turtle dove, had wings and could fly
I would [A] fly to my lover's lodgings and I'd lay down [Fm] by her side
[F] Oh, and there on her lily white sheets I would [C] lay down and [Eb] cry
And I'd dream of lovely Sarah with the tears in my eyes
[C]
[Eb] [G] [Eb]
Fare thee well to my [C] aged father and likewise my mother [Eb] too
I am gone far to [Gm] ramble in the whole world through
Oh, and when I get weary [Eb] I'll lay down and cry
And I'd dream of lovely Sarah, pretty Sarah, my bride
[Cm] [F]
[Eb] [C]
