Intro:
B A E (x4)
Verse:
B A E
I hung my harp upon the willows
B A E
When I first made this harbour town
B A E
My broken heart by fair Eliza
B A E
Still fresh and raw when I came to town
B A E
I learned a trade from Alexander
B A E
A scoundrel of the first degree
B A E
And within the year I was so despondent
B A E
That Doctor Fleeming well knew me
Chorus:
A/B E
Oh Eglinton floating on the water
A/B E
Oh Eglinton the rose was there for me
B A E
I hung my harp high upon the willows
B A E
Of Irvine town by the sea
B A E (x2)
Verse:
B A E
On Hogmanay I burned the work down
B A E
I found myself without a crown
B A E
Oh but I had more than any silver
B A E
'Cause I had a friend in Richard Brown
B A E
In Eglinton wood we'd wander
B A E
On the Drukken steps I would recite
B A E
Take your harp down from the willows
B A E
Said Richard Brown and he was right
Chorus:
A/B E
Oh Eglinton floating on the water
A/B E
Oh Eglinton the rose was there for me
B A E
I took my harp down from the willows
B A E
Richard Brown I bow to thee
Outro:
A/B E
Richard Brown I bow to thee

Richard Brown I bow to thee Last updated:
