Guitar chords with lyrics


Verse:

   G        C       D        G
Well Scotsman clad in kilt left the bar one evening fair
G         C            G          D
One could tell by how he walked, that he'd drunk more than his share.
  C       G        C        D
He stumbled on until he could no longer keep his feet,
    G       C        D        G
Then he staggered off into the grass to sleep beside the street.


Chorus:

C                G        D
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, ring di diddle I Oh
  G       C        D        G
He staggered off into the grass to sleep beside the street.

Verse:

   G    C        D          G
Later on two young and lovely girls just happened by,
G        C      G       D
One says to the other with a twinkle in her eye.
C        G      C          D
See yon sleeping Scotsman, so strong and handsome built,
   G      C          D        G
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt.


Chorus:

C                G        D
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, ring di diddle I Oh
   G      C          D        G
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt.


Verse:

   G        C         D       G
They crept up to that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be,
G       C       G          D
Lifted up his kilt above the waist so they could see.
C          G        C         D
And there behold for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt,
   G        C         D       G
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth.


Chorus:

C                G        D
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, ring di diddle I Oh
   G        C         D       G
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth.


Verse:

   G       C        D         G
They marveled for a moment then one said we'd best be gone,
G           C       G       D
Let's leave a present for our friend before we move along.
C           G         C      D
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon, tied into a bow,
   G      C         D      G
Around the bonnie star of the Scots kilt lifting show.


Chorus:

C                G        D
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, ring di diddle I Oh
   G      C         D      G
Around the bonnie star of the Scots kilt lifting show.


Verse:

   G        C        D         G
The Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled towards a tree,
G        C         G        D
Behind a bush he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees.
C         G        C         D
Then in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes,
   G      C            D          G
My friend I dunno where you've been but I see you've won first prize.


Chorus:

C                G        D
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, ring di diddle I Oh
   G      C            D          G
My friend I dunno where you've been but I see you've won first prize.
