Ae Fond Kiss

Robert Burns

key: C Tuning: E A D G B E
C                 F       Am
Ae fond kiss, and then we sever
F                 G       C
Ae farewell, and then forever
F                   C          Am
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee,
C       Am        G                C
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee.


[Verse 2]

C                  F       Am
Who shall say that Fortune grieves him,
F                  G        C
While the star of hope she leaves him
F               C       Am
Me nae cheerful twinkle lights me,
C       Am      G     C
Dark despair around benights me.


[Verse 3]

C                    F      Am
I'll ne'er blame my partial fancy:
F               G       C
Nothing could resist my Nancy
F              C      Am
But to see her was to love her
C        Am       G         C
Love but her, and love for ever.


[Verse 4]

C            F         Am
Had we never loved sae kindly,
F             G         C
Had we never loved sae blindly,
F              C     Am
Never met - or never parted -
C      Am         G      C
We had ne'er been broken-hearted.


[Verse 5]

C                    F         Am
Fare thee weel, thou first and fairest
F                     G        C
Fare thee weel, thou best and dearest
F             C       Am
Thine be ilka joy and treasure,
C      Am         G            C
Peace, Enjoyment, Love and Pleasure


[Verse 6]

C                 F       Am
Ae fond kiss, and then we sever
F             G         C
Ae farewell, alas, for ever
F                   C          Am
Deep in heart-wrung tears I'll pledge thee,
C       Am        G                C
Warring sighs and groans I'll wage thee.
