          D
There are twa bonnie maidens, and three bonnie maidens
     G
Come owre the Minch, come owre the main
         D                          G
With the wind for their way and the corry for their hame
G               A               D
They are dearly welcome back to Skye once again


[Chorus]
                  A             D               G
Come along, come along wi' your boatie and your song
   G                               A
My ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maids
        D           A         D          G
For the night it is dark, the Redcoat is gone
                  A               D
And ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once again


[Verse 2]
         D
There is Flora, my honey, sae dear, sae bonnie
    G
And ane, that's sae tall, sae handsome and all
        D                       G
Put the one for my king and the other for my queen
                A               D
They are dearly welcome back to Skye once again


[Chorus]
      D           A             D               G
Come along, come along wi' your boatie and your song
   G                               A
My ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maids
        D       A           D                G
For the Lady Macoulain, she dwelleth all her lane
                  A               D
And ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once again

Her arm it is long and her petticoat is strong
   G
My ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maids
    D                         G
The sea moullit's nest I will watch o'er the main
                  A               D
And ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once again

My ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maids
    D             A              D             G
And saft shall ye rest where the heather grows best
                  A               D
And ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once again


[Verse 4]
          D
There's a wind in the tree, a ship on the sea
   G
My ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maids
     D                       G
Your cradle I'll rock on the lea of the rock
                  A               D
And ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once again


[Chorus]
      D           A             D               G
Come along, come along wi' your boatie and your song

My ain bonnie maids, my twa bonnie maids
     D              A            D             G
Mair sound shall ye sleep as she sail o'er the deep
                  A               D
And ye are dearly welcome back to Skye once again
