C                     G  
Ae fond kiss, and then we sever;  
Am                 F  
Ae fareweel, and then forever!  
C                 G  
Deep in heart-wrung tears, I'll pledge thee,  
C                  G  
Warring sighs and groans, I'll wage thee.  

C                     G  
Who shall say that fortune grieves him,  
Am                 F  
While the star of hope she leaves him?  
C                G  
Me, nae cheerfu' twinkle lights me,  
C                G  
Dark despair around benights me.  

C                     G  
I'll ne'er blame my partial fancy;  
Am                 F  
Nothing could resist my Nancy.  
C                 G  
But to see her was to love her;  
C                  G  
Love but her, and love forever.  

C                     G  
Had we never loved sae kindly,  
Am                 F  
Had we never loved sae blindly,  
C                 G  
Never met—or never parted,  
C                G  
We had ne'er been broken-hearted.
