[VERSE 1]
Cold w[D]inter was turnin' o'er m[G]oor and o'er m[D]ountain
And w[G]ild was the s[D]urge on the d[E7]ark rollin' s[A7]ea
When I m[D]et aboot daybreak a b[G]onnie young l[D]assie
That [G]asked me the r[D]oad and the m[A7]iles tae D[D]undee

[VERSE 2]
I sa[D]id, "My young lassie, I c[G]anna weel tell [D]ye
The r[G]oad and the d[D]istance I ne'[E7]er can weel g[A7]auge
But [D]if ye'll permit me tae g[G]ang a wee bi[D]ttie
I'll [G]show ye the ro[D]ad and the mi[A7]les tae Du[D]ndee

[VERSE 3]
At o[D]nce she consented and ga[G]ve me her ai[D]r-m
Nae a w[G]ord did I spe[D]ir wham that la[E7]ssie might h[A7]ear
She a[D]ppeared like an angel in fe[G]ature and f[D]or-m
As she wa[G]lked by my s[D]ide on the r[A7]oad tae Du[D]ndee

[VERSE 4]
At l[D]ength with the howe of S[G]trathmartine b[D]ehind us
The sp[G]ires o' the t[D]oon in full v[E7]iew we could [A7]see
She s[D]aid, "Gentle sir, I can nev[G]er forget y[D]e
For sho[G]win' me so f[D]ar on the ro[A7]ad tae Dun[D]dee.

[VERSE 5]
This r[D]ing and this purse please a[G]ccept as a t[D]oken
And s[G]urely there's so[D]methin' that [E7]ye can gi'e [A7]me,
That [D]in years to come I'll the l[G]addie reme[D]mber
Who sho[G]wed me the r[D]oad and the [A7]miles to D[D]undee?"

[VERSE 6]
I to[D]ok the gold pin frae the sc[G]arf on my bo[D]som,
And s[G]aid, "Tak' ye th[D]is, in rememb[E7]rance o' [A7]me",
And b[D]ravely I kissed the sweet l[G]ips o' the l[D]assie
Ere I p[G]airted wi' h[D]er on the r[A7]oad tae Du[D]ndee

[VERSE 7]
So h[D]ere's tae the lassie, I ne[G]'er will for[D]get her
Tae i[G]lk a young lad[D]die that's li[E7]st'nin' tae [A7]me
Ne[D]ver be sweir to con[G]voy a young l[D]assie
Though it's o[G]nly to sh[D]ow her the [A7]road tae D[D]undee
