[VERSE]
As I walked [G]out on a [C]May morn[G]ing
By the [C]verdant braes o' [F]Skreen
I [C]leaned my back tae a mossy [G]tree
To [C]view the [G]dew on the [F]forest [G]green
The dew on the far coun[C]try

[VERSE]
"Oh, sit ye [G]down on the [C]grass,” he [G]said
"On the [C]dewy grass so [F]green
For the [C]wee birds all have come and [G]gone
Since [C]I my [G]love have [F]seen,” he [G]said
"Since I my love have [C]seen”

[VERSE]
"Oh, I'll not [G]sit on the [C]grass” she [G]said

For I [C]hear you love a Connaught [G]maid
And your [C]heart's no [G]longer [F]mine” she [G]said
”Your heart's no longer [C]mine”

[VERSE]
"Now, I'll not [G]heed what an [C]old man [G]says
For his [C]days are well [F]doon
And [C]I'll not heed what a young man [G]says
For he's [C]false to [G]many a [F]one, a [G]one
He's false to many a [C]one"

Tae [C]rob a wild bird's [F]nest
And [C]back I'll bring what I find [G]there
To the [C]arms I [G]love the [F]best” he [G]said
"To the arms I love the [C]best”
