A minorAm FF G+G
A minorAm FF E MajorE

A minorAm
There was a warm wind with the high tide
    C majorC         A minorAm
on the south side of the hill.
    G+G         FF
When a young girl went a-walking
    C majorC        E MajorE  G+G
and I followed with a will.

A minorAm
"Good day to you, my fine young lady
      C majorC        A minorAm
with your lips so sweetly full.
    G+G         FF
May I help you comb your long hair ---
      C majorC        D MajorD   E MajorE
sweep it from that brow so cool?"

FF  G+G       A minorAm
Up, ride with the kelpie.
    FF     G+G      C majorC  E MajorE
I'll steal your soul to the deep.
       FF     G+G      C majorC    FF
If you don't ride with me while the devil's free
        G+G    A minorAm
I'll ride with somebody else.

A minorAm FF G+G
A minorAm FF E MajorE

A minorAm
Well I'm a man when I'm feeling
  C majorC        A minorAm
the urge to step ashore.
      G+G         FF
So I may charm you --- not alarm you.
     C majorC           D MajorD  E MajorE
Tell you all fine things, and more.


FF  G+G       A minorAm
Up, ride with the kelpie.
    FF     G+G      C majorC  E MajorE
I'll steal your soul to the deep.
       FF     G+G      C majorC    FF
If you don't ride with me while the devil's free
        G+G    A minorAm
I'll ride with somebody else.

A minorAm FF G+G
A minorAm FF E MajorE


A minorAm
Say goodbye to all your dear kin ---
     C majorC        A minorAm
for they hate to see you go
     G+G           FF
in your young prime, to this place of mine
     C majorC        D MajorD  E MajorE
in the still loch far below.


FF  G+G       A minorAm
Up, ride with the kelpie.
    FF     G+G      C majorC  E MajorE
I'll steal your soul to the deep.
       FF     G+G      C majorC    FF
If you don't ride with me while the devil's free
        G+G    A minorAm
