  G+G        C majorC  D MajorD
 Is there for honest Poverty
   G+G     E minorEm    C majorC    D MajorD
 That hangs his head and a' that.
   G+G        C majorC    D MajorD
 The coward slave we pass him by;
  G+G    E minorEm    D MajorD
 We dare be poor for a' that!
   G+G      C majorC D MajorD
 For a' that, and a' that.
   G+G    G7G7    E minorEm    D MajorD
 Our toils obscure and a' that.
   G+G        A minorAm    A7A7
 The rank is but the guinea's stamp,
   E minorEm        D MajorD
 The man's a gowd for a' that.

   G+G        C majorC    D MajorD
 What though on hamely fare we dine,
   G+G   E minorEm    C majorC    D MajorD
 Wear hoddin grey, and a' that.
   G+G           C majorC      D MajorD
 Give fools their silks, and knaves their wine;
  G+G    E minorEm   D MajorD
 A augmentedA Man's a Man for a' that:
   G+G      C majorC D MajorD
 For a' that, and a' that,
    G+G   G7G7    E minorEm    D MajorD
 Their tinsel show, an' a' that;
   G+G        A minorAm    A7A7
 The honest man, tho' e'er sae poor,
  E minorEm       D MajorD
 Is king o' men for a' that.

  G+G        C majorC    D MajorD
 Ye see yon birkie, ca'd "a lord",
   G+G     E minorEm     C majorC    D MajorD
 Wha struts, an' stares, an' a' that;
   G+G        C majorC   D MajorD
 Tho' hundreds worship at his word,
   G+G   E minorEm    D MajorD
 He's but a coof for a' that:
   G+G      C majorC D MajorD
 For a' that, and a' that,
   G+G    G7G7    E minorEm    D MajorD
 His ribband, star, an' a' that:
   G+G     A minorAm   A7A7
 The man o' independent mind
  E minorEm         D MajorD
 He looks an' laughs at a' that.

  G+G         C majorC   D MajorD
 A augmentedA prince can make a belted knight,
  G+G    E minorEm    C majorC    D MajorD
 A augmentedA marquis, duke, an' a' that;
    G+G       C majorC    D MajorD
 But an honest man's aboon his might,
   G+G     E minorEm    D MajorD
 Gude faith, he maunna fa' that!
   G+G      C majorC D MajorD
 For a' that, and a' that,
    G+G   G7G7   E minorEm    D MajorD
 Their dignities an' a' that;
   G+G         A minorAm    A7A7
 The pity o' sense, and pride o' worth,
   E minorEm        D MajorD
 Are higher rank than a' that.

   G+G        C majorC    D MajorD
 Then let us pray that come it may,
   G+G   E minorEm    C majorC    D MajorD
 (As come it will for a' that,)
   G+G           C majorC   D MajorD
 That Sense and Worth, o'er a' the earth,
    G+G    E minorEm    D MajorD
 Shall bear the gree, an' a' that.
   G+G      C majorC D MajorD
 For a' that, and a' that,
   G+G   G7G7   E minorEm    D MajorD
 It's coming yet for a' that,
   G+G        A minorAm    A7A7
 That Man to Man, the world o'er,
    E minorEm       D MajorD
 Shall brothers be for a' that.
