Chorus:
    G                 C
Maxwellton braes are bonnie,
      G               D7
Where early fa's the dew,
           G               C
And it's there that Annie Laurie
      G       D       G
Gave me her promise true.
      G       D       G
Gave me her promise true,
       G        D7       G
Which ne'er forgot will be,
               C      G
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,
   G       D       G
I lay me doon and dee.

Verse 1:
      G                C
Her brow is like the snowdrift,
       G               D7
Her throat is like a swan,
     G              C
Her face it is the fairest
     G         D        G
That e'er the sun shone on.
     G         D        G
That e'er the sun shone on,
     G         D7    G
And dark blue is her ee,
               C      G
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
   G      D        G
I lay me doon and dee.

Chorus:
    G                 C
Maxwellton braes are bonnie,
      G               D7
Where early fa's the dew,
           G               C
And it's there that Annie Laurie
      G       D       G
Gave me her promise true.

Verse 2:
      G                C
Like dew on th' gowan lying,
        G                D7
Is the fa' o' her fairy feet,
          G               C
And like winds in summer sighing
     G        D       G
Her voice is low and sweet.
      G       D        G
Her voice is low and sweet,
      G           D7       G
And she's a' the world to me,
               C      G
And for bonnie Annie Laurie,
   G      D        G
I lay me doon and dee.
