C                   Am                Dm                 G   
Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing   
C                     F          C       G   
Onward' the sailors cry   
C              Am            Dm           G   
Carry the lad that's born to be king   
C              F         C   
Over the sea to Skye   

Am                              Dm                                Am           F             Am   
Loud the winds howl loud the waves roar thunderclaps rend the air   
Am                      Dm                          Am             F        Am            G   
Baffled our foes stand by the shore follow they will not dare   

C                       Am              Dm              G   
Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing   
C                    F            G   
Onward the sailors cry   
C          Am                Dm                 G   
Carry the lad that s born to be King   
C             F        C   
over the sea to Skye   

Many`s the lad fought on that day  

Well the clay-more could wield  

When the night came, si-lent-ly lay  

Dead on Cul-lo-den`s field  

Chorus  

Am                                  Dm                         Am            F       Am          
Through the waves leap soft shall ye sleep ocean s a royal bed   
Am                            Dm                   Am                  F        Am     G            
Rocked in the deep Flora will keep watch by your weary head   

C                      Am               Dm              G   
Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing   
C                F               G   
Onward' the sailors cry   
C              Am            Dm              G   
Carry the lad that s born to be king   
C        F        C   
over the sea to Skye   

Burned are our homes, ex-ile and death  

Scat-tered the lo-yal men  

Yet ere the sword cool in the sheath  

Char-lie will come again
