VERSE:
         B
Oh, the summertime is gone,
          E         Abm     B
And the leaves are sweetly turning
         E    Ebm      Dbm
And the wild mounta in thyme
          E        B     Dbm
Blooms across the purple heather
        F#   Abm    B
Will ya go, lassie, go.

If ye will not go with me
        E    Abm    B
I will never find another
         E    Ebm      Dbm
To pick wild mountain thyme
       E        B     Dbm
All around the purple heather

Will ye go, lassie, go?

All among the purple heather

I will build my love a tower
        E    Abm     B
By the cool crystal waters
           E      Ebm   Dbm
And I'll cling to her forever
         E   B       Dbm
Like the ivy to the heather,
         F#   Abm    B
Will you go, lassie, go.
