The Braes O' killiecrankie Song Lyrics And  Chords

The Corries, written by Robert Burns. 2/4. Guitar work by Marc. The sheet music is included. I also added a version of the tin whistle notes in a higher key of D Major.

Whaur [E]hae ye been sae [A]braw, lad? 
Whaur [E]hae ye been sae [B7]brankie-o? 
Whaur [E]hae ye been sae [A]braw, lad?

Chorus
An' [E]ye had been whaur [A]I hae been 
Ye [E]wadna been sae [B7]cantie-o 
An' [E]ye had seen what [A]I hae seen 
On the [E]braes o' [B7]Killie[A]crankie-[E]o
I [E]fought at land, I [A]fought at sea
At [E]hame I fought my [B7]auntie-o 
But I [E]met the Devil [A]and Dundee 
On the [E]braes o' [B7]Killie[A]crankie-[E]o
Chorus
The [E]bauld pit cur fell [A]in a furr 
And [E]Clavers gat a [B7]clankie-o 
And [E]I had fed an [A]Atholl gled 
On the [E]braes o' [B7]Killie[A]crankie-[E]o
Chorus
Oh [E]fie, MacKay, What [A]gart ye lie

Than [E]come tae [B7]Killie[A]crankie-[E]o
Chorus
It's nae shame, it's nae shame 
It's nae shame to shank ye-o 
There's sour slaes on Athol braes 
And the de'ils at [B7]Killie[A]crankie-[E]o
