"G"D3/2 E/D | "Em"G2 G/G | "C"A3/2 B/A | "D"d3 | "G"B3/2 A/B | "C"E2E | "D"D3- | D3 |
w: Speed bon-nie boat like a bird on the wing. on-ward the sai-lor's cry;
"G"D3/2 E/D | "Em"G2G | "C"A3/2 B/A | "D"d3 | "G"B3/2 A/B | "C"E2E | "D"D3- | D3 |
w: Car-ry the lad that's born to be king o-ver the sea to Skye.
"Em"B3/2 G/B | B3 | "Am"A3/2 E/A | A3 | "Em"G3/2 E/G | G2G | E3- | E3 |
w: Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar. Thun-der claps rend the air;
w: Ma-ny's the lad, fought in that day. Well the clay-more did wield;
w: Though the waves leap, soft shall ye sleep. O-cean's a ro-yal bed.
w: Burned are their homes, ex-ile and death. Scat-ter the loy-al men;
"Em"B3/2 G/B | B3 | "Am"A3/2 E/A | A3 | "Em"G3/2 E/G | G2G | "Am"(E3 | "D"D3) :|
w: Baff-led our foes stand by the shore. Fol-low they will not dare.
w: When the night came, si-lent-ly lay. Dead in Cul-lo-den's field.
w: Rocked in the deep, Flo-ra will keep. Watch by your wear-y head.
w: Yet ere the sword cool in the sheath Char-lie will come a-gain.
T: Stevenson's Poem Lyrics (Outlander theme)

"G"D3/2 E/D | "Em"G2 G/G | "C"A3/2 B/A | "D"d3 | "G"B3/2 A/B | "C"E2E | "D"D3- | D3 |
w: Sing me a song of a lad that is gone, Say, could that lad be I?
"G"D3/2 E/D | "Em"G2G | "C"A3/2 B/A | "D"d3 | "G"B3/2 A/B | "C"E2E | "D"D3- | D3 |
w: Mer-ry of soul he sailed on a day. O-ver the sea to Skye.
"Em"B3/2 G/B | B3 | "Am"A3/2 E/A | A3 | "Em"G3/2 E/G | G2G | E3- | E3 |
w: Mull was a-stern, Rum on the port, Eigg on the star-board bow;
w: Give me a-gain all that was there, Give me the sun that shone!
w: Bil-low and breeze, is-lands and seas, Moun-tains of rain and sun.
"Em"B3/2 G/B | B3 | "Am"A3/2 E/A | A3 | "Em"G3/2 E/G | G2G | "Am"(E3 | "D"D3) :|
w: Glo-ry of youth glowed in his soul; Where is that glo-ry now?
w: Give me the eyes, give me the soul, Give me the lad that's gone!
w: All that was good, all that was fair, All that was me is gone.
