       F      Dm       Gm     C7
Should auld acquitance be forgot,

and never brought to mind
       F      Dm       Gm     C7
Should auld acquitance be forgot,
    Dm      Gm   C7   F
and days of auld lang syne?

For auld lang syne, my dear,
    F    F7   Bb
for auld lang syne;

we'll take a cup of kindness yet
    Bb   Gm C7 F
for auld lang  syne

       F        Dm     Gm     C7
Should auld acquitance be forgot,
    Dm      Bb   C7   F
and days of auld lang syne?

    F         Dm       Gm     C7
And there's a hand, my trusty fiere!
    F       F7      Bb
And gie's a hand o'thine!

For auld lang  syne.
