Вступление

[Intro]
A

[Verse]
                       D        E
The bonny head and the well fed heir
    A                D
The handsome heir o' Linne
A                       D        E
Yonder he stands at his father's gate
    A      D        E
And nobody bids him in

[Verse]
A                     G
See where he goes and see where he stands
    D     A       E
The weary heir of Linne
G                       D         A
Yonder he stands on the cold causeway
    D      E        A
And nobody bids him in

[Verse]
                        D         E
He's sold his father's estate and land
     A            D
He's sold it on a day
    A                 D    E
Within three-quarters of a year
     A       D        E
He's not one brass penny

[Verse]
    A                   G
For he has drunk of the wine so clear
     D       A         E
Good company spent his gold
    G              D      A
And now he wanders on the shore
D       E       A
Hungry, wet and cold

[Instrumental]
A   G  D   A   G  D  E

[Verse]
    A                   D          E
His nurse at her window she looked out
  A                D
Beholding dale and down
    A                  D         E
And there she saw this sad young man
     A       D      E
Come walking to the town

[Verse]
      A                  G
“Come here, come here my child,” she said
     D        A         E
“And rest yourself with me
     G                D      A
I've seen you in much better days
   D      E    A
In jovial company”

[Verse]
                         D         E
“Give me a slice of your bread, Nursey
      A              D
And a bottle of your wine
     A              D     E
I'll pay you for it o'er again
     A       D       E
When I'm the Lord of Linne”

[Verse]
        A                 G
“You'll get a slice of my bread, my child
      D      A     E
And a bottle of my wine
    G               D        A
But pay me when the seas run dry
       D        E       A
You'll never be Lord of Linne”

[Instrumental]
A   G  D   A   G  D
A   G  D   A   G  D  E

[Verse]
     A                 D      E
Then he has turned him right about
   A            D
As any mother's son
   A                  D         E
So off he has set and found his way
    A           D       E
And straightway came to Linne

[Verse]
    A                   G
But when he came to the castle strong
          D       A       E
They were all sat down to dine
  G               D        A
A score of nobles there he saw
    D        E      A
Sat drinking at the wine

[Verse]
                         D         E
Some said, “Give him the beef, the beef”
     A                   D
Some said, “Give him the bone”
    A                    D          E
And some said, “Give him nothing at all
    A       D      E
But let the beggar roam”

[Verse]
     A                G
Then up and spake the new-come lord
  D     A          E
A saucy word spoke he
      G                     D     A
“Pass round the cup, let my rival sup
     D        E      A
Then send him on his way”

[Instrumental]
A   G  D   A   G  D
A   G  D   A   G  D  E

[Verse]
     A                    D      E
He's turned him right and round about
   A            D
As any father's son
       A           D      E
He's reminded of a leaden key
    A      D         E
His father left with him

[Verse]
    A             G
His father left a meagre key
D      A       E
Just before he died
   G                D     A
He bade him keep it secretly
     D      E       A
Till he was most in need

[Verse]
                          D      E
Then forth he went, these nobles left
    A               D
All drinking in the hall
    A              D      E
And he has found a bolted door
  A       D      E
Below the castle wall

[Verse]
    A              G
The key has opened up the door
     D       A       E
Wherein lies all his hope
    G                   D         A
But where he thought to find good gold
      D       E          A
There stood a gibbet and rope

[Instrumental]
A   G  D   A   G  D  E

[Verse]
A                  D        E
Under the rope was placed a stool
    A                 D
All covered o'er with dust
    A             D          E
The father had condemned the son
    A        D      E
His sentence it was just

[Verse]
    A                    G
The son he sighed, stood on the stool
D       A       E
Never a word he spoke
    G                D    A
But as he jumped to eternity
D        E      A
Down the gibbet broke

[Instrumental]
A   G  D   A   G  D  E

[Verse]
   A                  D        E
It broke and cracked above his head
   A             D
He landed on the floor
    A                  D       E
And round him rolling, shining bright
      A      D      E
Was a hidden golden store

[Instrumental]
A   G  D   A   G  D
A   G  D   A   G  D  E

[Verse]
 A                    D           E
“Oft have I gone with bitter cold feet
    A                  D
Likewise with legs all bare
    A                D        E
And many days walked at these gates
A        D          E
With sad sorrow and care"

[Verse]
     A               G
"But now my sorrow's past and gone
D       A     E
Joy has all returned
G               D     A
Now that I have gold enough
   D      E      A
To buy my lands again”

[Verse]
                    D       E
As he galloped back through town
   A          D
He jubilantly crowed
    A                 D         E
And he's called out before them all
    A          D       E
The nurse from out her house

[Verse]
      A                  G
“Come here, come here my nurse,” he said
      D        A         E
“I'll pay your bread and wine
     G            D       A
Seas ebb and flow as they will
     D       E       A
Yet, I'm the Lord of Linne”

[Instrumental]
A   D  E  A  D  E
A   D  E  A  D  E

[Verse]
A                G
He's gone up the Gallowgate port
   D     A        E
In tatty hose and gown
    G                 D       A
But he was carried by fifteen lords
D       E         A
When he came back down

[Outro]
A   D  E  A   D
A   D  E  A  D  E
A   G   D   E
G   D  A  D  E  A
