G                  C
Maxwelton's braes are bonnie
      G              D
Where early fa's the dew
          G                C
And 'twas there that Annie Laurie
     G      D       G
Gave me her promise true.
            D7      G
Gave me her promise true
               D7       G
Which ne'er forgot will be
        Em     C     G
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
           D        G
I'd lay me doon and dee.


    G                C 
Her brow is like the snawdrift
    G                D
Her neck is like the swan
    G              C
Her face it is the fairest
     G        D         G
That e'er the sun shone on.
              D7        G
That e'er the sun shone on
              D7     G
And dark blue is her e'e
        Em     C     G
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
           D        G
I'd lay me doon and dee.


     G                C
Like dew on the gowan lying
       G                D
Is the fa' o' her fairy feet
         G              C
And like wind in summer sighing
    G        D       G
Her voice is low and sweet.
             D7      G
Her voice is low and sweet
             D7       G
She's a' the world to me
        Em     C     G
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
           D        G
I'd lay me doon and dee.
