[G)Hark when the night is falling,

Hear! hear the pipes are calling,

(C)Loudly and (G)proudly calling,

(D)Down thro' the glen.(D7)

(G)There where the hills are sleeping,

Now feel the blood a-leaping,

(C)High as the (G)spirits of the (D)old Highland (G)men.

Chorus

(D)Towering in gallant fame,

(G)Scotland my mountain hame,

(C)High may your (G)proud standards (D)gloriously wave,(D7)

(G)Land of my high endeavour,

Land of the shining river,

(C)Land of my (G)heart for ever,

(D)Scotland the (G)brave.

(G)High in the misty Highlands

Out by the purple islands,

(C)Brave are the (G)hearts that beat

Be(D)neath Scottish skies.(D7)

(G)Wild are the winds to meet you,

Staunch are the friends that greet you,

(C)Kind as the (G)love that shines from (D)fair maidens' (G)eyes.
