G                  C 
Maxwelton's braes are bonnie 
      G              D 
Where early fa's the dew 
          G                C 
And 'twas there that Annie Laurie 
     G      D       G 
Gave me her promise true. 
            D7      G 
Gave me her promise true 
               D7       G 
Which ne'er forgot will be 
        Em     C     G 
And for bonnie Annie Laurie 
           D        G 
I'd lay me doon and dee. 


    G                C  
Her brow is like the snawdrift 
    G                D 
Her neck is like the swan 
    G              C 
Her face it is the fairest 
     G        D         G 
That e'er the sun shone on. 
              D7        G 
That e'er the sun shone on 
              D7     G 
And dark blue is her e'e 
        Em     C     G 
And for bonnie Annie Laurie 
           D        G 
I'd lay me doon and dee. 


     G                C 
Like dew on the gowan lying 
       G                D 
Is the fa' o' her fairy feet 
         G              C 
And like wind in summer sighing 
    G        D       G 
Her voice is low and sweet. 
             D7      G 
Her voice is low and sweet 
             D7       G 
She's a' the world to me 
        Em     C     G 
And for bonnie Annie Laurie 
           D        G 
I'd lay me doon and dee.
