[G]For fame and for fortune I [C]wandered the [G]earth 
And [C]now I've come [G]back to the land of my [D]birth 
I've brought back my [G]treasures [G7]but only to [C]find 
They're less than the [G]pleasures I [D]first left be[G]hind 

CHORUS
For these are my mountains and this is my glen 
The braes of my childhood will know me again 
No land's ever claimed me tho' far I did roam 
For these are my mountains and I'm going home 
and I'm coming home 

The berm by the road sings at my going by 
The lark overhead wings a welcoming cry 
The loch where the scart flies at last I can see 
It's here where my heart lies it's here I'll be free 

Kind faces will meet me and welcome me in 
And how they will greet me my ain kith and kin 
The night by the ingle old sangs will be sung 
At last I'll be hearing my ain mother tongue.
