Intro: G    Bm  C  G  C  G    D  G 

verse 1: 
                          Bm 
When I've done my work of day  
      C            G  
And I row my boat away 
         C              G 
Down the waters of Loch Tay 
       D                D7 
As the evening light is fading 
      G             Bm 
And I gaze upon Ben Lawers 
          C           G 
Where the after glory glows 
      C                   G  
And I think on two bright eyes  
                D       G 
And the melting mouth below 


verse 2: 
         C                 G  
She's my beauteous nighean ruach 
   C              G 
My joy and sorrow too 
    C              G  
And if she prove untrue 
        D       
Well, I cannot live without her 
       G                 Bm 
For my heart's a boat in tow 
        C                 G 
And I'd give the world to know 
        C               G 
Why she means to let me go 
            D      G 
As I sing hilee, hilo 


Instrumental: G  Bm  C  G  C  G    D  G 


verse 3: 
                           Bm 
Nighean ruach, your lovely hair  
         C            G  
Has more glamour, I declare 
     C               G  
Than all the tresses rare 
       D              D7 
'Tween Killen and Aberfeldy 
        G                     Bm 
Be they lint, white, brown or gold 
        C                G  
Be they blacker than the sloe 
         C                G  
They are no more worth to me  
               D        G 
Than a melting flake of snow 


verse 4: 
        C                 G  
And her eyes are like the gleam 
         C               G  
Like the sunlight on the stream 
        C                 G  
And the songs the faeries sing 
         D       
Are like songs she sings at milking 
       G                Bm 
But my heart is full of woe 
         C                 G  
For last night she bade me go 
        C              G  
And the tears begin to flow 
            D      G 
As I sing hilee, hilo 


Instrumental: G  Bm  C  G  C  G  D  D7  G  Bm  C  G  C  G    D  G 


VERSE 5: 
    C                 G  
Her eyes are like the gleam 
    C               G  
The sunlight on the stream 
        C                 G  
And the songs the faeries sing 
         D       
Are like songs she sings at milking 
       G                Bm 
But my heart is full of woe 
         C                 G  
For last night she bade me go 
        C              G  
And the tears begin to flow 
            D      G 
As I sing hilee, hilo
