Chorus
C                                                           F
A fine wee lass, a bonnie wee lass, is bonnie wee Jeannie McColl;
    G                                                           C
I gave her my mother's engagement ring and a bonnie wee tartan shawl.
C                                           F    
I met her at a waddin' in the Co-operative Hall
G                                 G7             C
I wis the best man and she was the belle of the ball.


C                                                   F
The very first nicht I met her, she was awfy, awfy shy, 
          G                                             C
The rain cam' pourin' doon, but she was happy, and so was I.
C                                                F
We ran like mad for shelter, an' we landed up a stair,
G                                            G7           C
The rain cam' poorin' oot o' ma breeks, but och I didna care:

For she's.....

C                                                            F
A fine wee lass, a bonnie wee lass, is bonnie wee Jeannie McColl;
    G                                                            C

C                                               F
Noo I've wad my Jeannie, an' bairnies we have three,
          G                                         C
Two dochters and a braw wee lad, that sits upon my knee.
C                                                            F
They're richt wee holy terrors, an' they're never still for lang,
G                                     G7                        C
But they sit an' listen every nicht, while I sing to them this sang:

Oh it's ....
