Am  
There was a warm wind with the high tide  
        C                 Am  
on the south side of the hill.  
        G                 F  
When a young girl went a-walking  
       C               E   G  
and I followed with a will.  
 
Am  
"Good day to you, my fine young lady  
           C               Am  
with your lips so sweetly full.  
       G                  F  
May I help you comb your long hair ---  
           C                D     E  
sweep it from that brow so cool?"  
   
 
F    G             Am  
Up, ride with the kelpie.  
       F         G           C   E  
I'll steal your soul to the deep.  
              F         G            C        F  
If you don't ride with me while the devil's free  
                G       Am  
I'll ride with somebody else.

Am  
Well I'm a man when I'm feeling  
    C               Am  
the urge to step ashore.  
           G                 F  
So I may charm you --- not alarm you.  
         C                     D    E  
Tell you all fine things, and more.

I'll steal your soul to the deep.  
              F         G            C        F

Am  
Say goodbye to all your dear kin ---  
          C               Am  
for they hate to see you go  
         G                     F  
in your young prime, to this place of mine  
         C               D   E  
in the still loch far below.  
   
 
F    G             Am  
Up, ride with the kelpie.  
       F         G           C   E  
I'll steal your soul to the deep.  
              F         G            C        F  
If you don't ride with me while the devil's free  
                G       Am  
I'll ride with somebody else.
