CAPO: 5th Fret
INTRO: C F C F C (2x)
'Twas on a summer's afternoon
A [F]wee before the sun went down
My [C]lassie with her brand new gown
Came [F]over the hills to [C]Gowrie[F][C][F][C]
I praised her beauty loud and long
And '[F]round her waist my arms I flung[C]
I said, "My dearie, will you come
To [F]see the Glen of [C]Gowrie?"
"I'll take you to yon wooded dale
Where [F]blooms the purple heather bell
[C]There we'll tarry for awhile
A[F]fore we go to [C]Gowrie"
CHORUS:
Like a rosebud wet from morning shower
Blooming [F]fresh within the sunny bower
[Am7]Katie was the [F]fairest flower
That [C]ever bloomed in Gowrie
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C F C (2x)
Soft kisses on her lips I laid
The [F]blush upon her cheeks soon spread
She [C]whispered modestly and said,
"I'll [F]go with you to [C]Gowrie"
I gently held her hand in mine
We [F]walked through fields of mountain thyme
I [C]promised her a love so fine
That [F]bonnie lass of [C]Gowrie?
CHORUS:
Like a rosebud wet from morning shower
Blooming [F]fresh within the sunny bower
[Am7]Katie was the [F]fairest flower
That [C]ever bloomed in Gowrie

Came [F]o'er the hills of [C]Gowrie
