Refrain:

d F C d

Speed bonnie boat like a bird on a wing,

d F B C

Onwards the seagulls cry,

d F C d

Speed bonnie boat as fast as the wind

B C d

Over the sea to Skye.

The morning tide takes me away

d F B C

Into the early twilight,

d F C d

And all I can hear is the sound of the sea,

B C

Far away from home.

Strophe:

There4s one bonnie lass awaiting me

Far on the distant shore.

The wind and the sea will be good to me,

Then I see her once more.

Culloden's Field is now in sight

And darkness hangs above me.

White horses dance and the wind blows hard

Along the way to Skye.
