Loch Tay Boat Song Chords & Lyrics - The Corries

[C]When I've done my work of d[Em]ay a[F]nd I row my b[G]oat away[C]
[Am]Doon the [F]waters[G] o' Loch [C]Tay [Am]as the e[Dm]vening light is fa[G]din'
[G7]And I l[C]ook upon Ben Lawe[Em]rs where the [F]after glo[G]ry g[C]low
[Am]And I d[F]ream on [G]two bright [C]eyes a[Am]nd the [Dm]meltin[G]g mouth [C]below

[F]She's my b[G]eauteous[C] nighean ruach [nighean ruach = red-haired lass - pronounced neon roe]
[Am]She's my [F]joy and [G]sorrow [C]too
[Am]And alt[F]hough sh[G]e is untr[C]ue
[Am]Ah, but I c[Dm]annot live with[G]out her
[G7]For my h[C]eart's a boat in [Em]tow
[Am]And I'd g[F]ive the w[G]orld to k[Em]now
[Am]Why she [F]means to [G]let me [C]go
[Am]As I sin[Dm]g horee,[G] horo [C]

[C]Nighean ruach, your lovely [Em]hair has more [F]glamour [G]I dec[C]lare
Than [Am]all the [F]tresses [G]rare from [C]Killen [Am]to [Dm]Aberfeldy [G]
[G7]Be they [C]lint, white, brown, or g[Em]old be they [F]blacker[G] than th[C]e sloe
[Am]They have [F]no more[G] worth t[C]o me tha[Am]n a melt[Dm]in fla[G]ke o' sn[C]ow

And her [F]dance is [G]like the [C]gleam
[Am]O'er the [F]sunlight[G] on the[C] stream
[Am]And the[F] songs t[G]he faerie[C]s sing
[Am]Seems like [Dm]songs she sings at mil[G]kin'
[G7]But my h[C]eart is full of w[Em]oe
[Am]For last [F]night she[G] bade me [Em]go
[Am]And the [F]tears beg[G]in to f[C]low
[Am]As I sin[Dm]g horee,[G] horo [C]
