Dave Gunning Kate o the Gowrie Lyrics

CAPO: 5th Fret
INTRO: C F C F C (2x)
'Twas on a summer's afternoon
A wee before the sun went down
My lassie with her brand new gown
Came over the hills to Gowrie
I praised her beauty loud and long
And 'round her waist my arms I flung
I said, "My dearie, will you come
To see the Glen of Gowrie?"
"I'll take you to yon wooded dale
Where blooms the purple heather bell
There we'll tarry for awhile
Afore we go to Gowrie"
CHORUS:
Like a rosebud wet from morning shower
Blooming fresh within the sunny bower
Katie was the fairest flower
That ever bloomed in Gowrie
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C F C (2x)
Soft kisses on her lips I laid
The blush upon her cheeks soon spread
She whispered modestly and said,
"I'll go with you to Gowrie"
I gently held her hand in mine
We walked through fields of mountain thyme
I promised her a love so fine
That bonnie lass of Gowrie?
CHORUS:
Like a rosebud wet from morning shower
Blooming fresh within the sunny bower
Katie was the fairest flower
That ever bloomed in Gowrie
CHORUS:
Like a rosebud wet from morning shower
Blooming fresh within the sunny bower
Katie was the fairest flower
That ever bloomed in Gowrie
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C F C (2x)
'Twas on a summer's afternoon
A wee before the sun went down
My lassie with her brand new gown
Came o'er the hills of Gowrie
OUTRO: C F C F C (2x)
