[Verse 1]
Em7 Em
A trooper lad cam here last nicht
Dsus2
Wi' riding he was weary
Cmaj7
A trooper lad cam here last nicht
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em
When the moon shone bricht and clearly
Em7 Em
Bonnie lassie i lie near ye noo
Dsus2
Bonnie lassie i lie near ye
Cmaj7
And i’ll gar a' ye’re ribbons reel
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em Em7 Em
In the morning e’re i leave ye

[Verse 2]
Em7 Em
She’s ta’en his fine horse by the heid
Dsus2
And she’s led him to the stable
Cmaj7
She’s ga’en him corn and hay tae eat
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em
As much as he was able
Em7 Em
She’s ta’en the trooper by the hand
Dsus2
And she’s led him tae her chamber
Cmaj7
She’s ge’en him breed and wine tae drink
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em Em7 Em
And the wine it was like amber

[Verse 3]
Em7 Em
She’s made the bed baith lang and wide
Dsus2
She’s made it like a lady
Cmaj7
She’s ta’en her wee cloak ower heed
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em
Says trooper are ye ready?
Em7 Em
He’s ta’en off his big top coat
Dsus2
Likewise his hat and feather
Cmaj7
And he’s ta’en his broadsword frae his side
Cmaj7 Dsus2 Em
And no he’s doon beside her

[Instrumental]
