Intro: Am Em G Am

Verse:

Am                                  Em  
Cha b' e sneachda 'san reòthadh bho thuath
G                     Em         Am
Cha b'e crannadh geur fuar bho'n ear
                   D              Am
Cha b'e uisge 'san gailleon bho'n iar
                D          Am
Ach an galair a blen bho'n deas
G                Em          G
Blàth, duilleach stoc agus freumh
         Em            Am
Cànan mo threubh 's mo shluaidh.


Chorus:

Am                             G
Thig thugainn, thig co-rium gu siar
       Em              G         Am
Gus an cluinn sinn ann cànan nam Féinn
                                G
Thig thugainn, thig co-rium gu siar
        Em             G          Am
Gus an cluinn sinn ann cànan nan Gàidheal


Verse:

Am                                Em
S iomadh gille thug greis air a' chuibhl'
G                      Em                Am
S an dubh-oidhche thog fonn Gàidhlig a' chridh
                      D               Am
S iomadh gaisgeach a' bhrosnaich 'sa bhlàir
                  D             Am
Gu euchd nuair bu teòtha bha'n strì
G                     Em       G
O Ghàidheil! O caite n deach d'uaill
             Em              Am
Nad Chìne 's nad chànan 's do thir?


Chorus
