I Will Go Song Lyrics And Guitar Chords

A Traditional Scottish song recorded by The McCalmans and The Corries. The youtube video is of Stephen Quigg who used to play with The McCalmans. The ukulele chords are included. This song was translated from Scottish Gaelic to English. The second version [On The Right] was made into an Irish version by Marc Fahrbach by replacing a few words. The sheet music is included.

Chorus
I will [G]go, I will go
When the [C]fighting is [Am]over
Tae the [G]land o' MacLeod
Which I [C]left to be a [Am]soldier
I will [G]go, I will go
The [G]King's son came along
And [C]gathered us to[Am]gether
Sayin', [G]Brave Highland men
Will you [C]fight for my [Am]father?
I will [G]go, I will go
 
 
Chorus
I've a [G]buckle on my belt
A [C]sword in my [Am]scabbard
A [G]red coat on my back
And a [C]shillin' in my [Am]pocket
I will [G]go, I will go
 
 
Chorus
When they [G]brought us all on board
The [C]lasses were [Am]singin'
But the [G]tears came to their eyes
When the [C]bells started [Am]ringin'
I will [G]go, I will go
 
 
Chorus
When we [G]landed on the shore
And [C]saw the foreign [Am]heather
We [G]knew that some would fall
And would [C]lie there for[Am]ever
I will [G]go, I will go
 
 
Chorus
When we [G]came back to the glen
The [C]winter was [Am]coming
Our [G]goods lay in the snow
And our [C]houses were [Am]burnin'
I will [G]go...  I will go
