[the last bar of the main riff]

Her uncle had a plough-boy, Young Mary loved full well,
And in her uncle's garden their tales of love did tell,
There was a wealthy squire who oft came her to see,
But still she loved her plough-boy on the banks of sweet Dundee

Refrain:

Her uncle rose one morning and then went straightway,
Chord diagramE MajorE
and knocked at her bedroom door and unto her thus did say,
Chord diagramF# minorF#m
Come rise up fair maiden, a lady you shall be,
Chord diagramE MajorE
For the squire is waiting for you on the banks of sweet Dundee
Chord diagramD MajorD                Chord diagramC# minorC#m
