1. C When I die F bury me C low
where I can Emi hear the Dmi bonny Tweed G flow
a Ami sweeter place I F never did C know
the rolling Ami hills of the G Bor C der.
2. I’ve travelled far wandered wide
I’ve seen the Hudson and the Clyde
I parted by Loch Lomond side
but I dearly love the Border.
3. Well do I remind the day
with my lassies strode by the way
but all these beauties fade away
among the hills of the Border.
4. There’s a certain place of mine
bonnie lassies there you’ll find
men so sturdy yet so kind
among the hills of the Border.
