The Skye Boat Song piano leadsheet with chords
Speed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing.
Onward! the sailors cry.
Carry the lad who was born to be king over the sea to Skye.
Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar,
thunderclaps rend the air.
Baffled, our foes stand by the shore.
Follow, they will not dare.
Speed, bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing.
Onward! the sailors cry.
Carry the lad who was born to be king over the sea to Skye.
Though the waves leap, soft shall ye sleep;
ocean's a royal bed.
Rocked in the deep, flora will keep.
Watch by your weary head.
field. Skye.
