[E]
[D]
Cold winter [D] was howling, or moor and or mantle, Wild was the surge on the dark [A] rolling [E]
sea,
met [E] about daybreak a bonny young lassie, Who asked me the road [E] and the miles [D] to Dundee.
Says I, [E] my young lassie, I can [D] well tell you, [G] The road and the [D]
distance I can [A] well give,
if you'll [E] permit me to [D] gang away with thee, [G] I'll show you the [D] road [E] and the miles to [D] Dundee.

Cold winter [D] was howling, or moor and or mantle, _ Wild was the surge on the dark [A] rolling [E] _
sea,
_ [D] When I met [E] about _ daybreak a bonny young lassie, Who asked me the road [E] and the miles [D] to Dundee. _ _ _
Says I, [E] my young lassie, I can [D] well tell you, [G] The road and the [D] _
distance I can [A] well give,
_ _ [D] But if you'll [E] permit me to [D] gang away with thee, [G] I'll show you the [D] _ road [E] and the miles to [D] Dundee. _ _ _
At once [E] she consented and gave me [D] her arm, Near a wad with a spear, where the lassie [A] might be.
_ _ [D] She appeared [E] like an angel in creature [D] and form, [G] As she walked by [D] my side [E] on the road to [D] _ _ Dundee. _
At length, [E] where the hull was [G] struck, Martin [D] behind [G] us, Inspired [D] so the tune in full view [E] we could see.
_ _ [D] She said, gentle [E] sir, I'll [D] never forget thee, For showing me so _ [E] far on the road [D] to Dundee. _ _ _

So I took the [E] gold pin, frayed the scar [D] on my bezel, [G] And said, keep [D] thee this in remembrance [E] of me.
_ _ [D] Then bravely I [E] kissed the sweet [D] lips of the lassie, Ere I parted with _ her [E] on the road to [D] _ Dundee. _ _
So here's [E] to thee, lassie, I never [D] will forget thee, And Bilk, a young laddie, that's listening [A] to _ me.
_ _ [D] Oh, never [E] be swayed or taken by [D] a young lassie, Though it's only to show [E] her the road to [D] _ Dundee. _ _
