G'day Biozo,

I'm glad to see that you really want the chords, not all the words. I seem to remember hearing that Cecil Sharp sat around a camp fire with a bunch of Highlander troops and tried to write down all the words. Around 3 am he ran out of paper!

As the classic Scots bawdy song, there are about as many verses as there are Scots!

Regards,

Bob Bolton
