Lovely Lindsay
(traditional [Child 226], arrang. J. Ferguson, 2024)
Chorus:
C Am
Will ye go to the Highlands, Lovely Lindsay?
C F
Will ye go to the Highlands with me?
G C Am
Will ye go to the Highlands, Lovely Lindsay,
F G C
me bride and me darling to be?
Interlude: F G C
V1.
To go to the Highlands with you, Sir,
I cannot see how that may be,
for I know not the lands that ye live in,
nor know I the lad who asks me.
V2.
O, lovely lass, ye must know little,
if it be that you do not know me;
for my name is Lord Ronald MacDonald,
a Chieftain of high degree.
V3.
She has kilted her coats of green satin.
She has kilted them up to her knee,
and she's off with Lord Ronald MacDonald,
his bride and his darling to be.
