[Verse 1]
C            Em       F       G
Farewell you braes o' Suther- land,
G    F         G      C
I'll ne'er see you no more
C   F               C
For I must take  a strangers path
C   F        C      G
and leave my native shore
G  F               C
My friends  and my acquaintances
C     F       C      G
I'll give you now my hand
G   C      Em       F          G
For I will ne'er be back again on
G   F        G       C
the Braes o' Suther- land

[Verse 2]
C             Em     F       G
To the ridges of the old Ben More

Ill bid a fond farewell
C  F               C
To Rosehall and to Bonar Bridge
C    F        C          G
I'll leave my heart with you
G       F                   C
To the rolling banks o' the Oykel
C   F            C      G
and to Dornoch's gentle sands
G C        Em      F        G
I wish you well my comrades there
G      F        G       C
on the Braes of Suther- land

C            Em       F         G
Farewell you roads to Spinning- dale,
G    F       G        C
this chapter now will close
C      F                       C
To the ghosts that they lie at Carbisdale
C   F            C       G
and the downfall of Mon- trose
G  F             C
To Ardgay and to Invershin
C  F         C         G     Em
no more I'll walk your sands 
Em  C         Em       F     G
For I have to leave my memo- ries
G  F            G       C
on the Braes of Suther- land

[Verse]
C          Em       F      G
I now will leave my native home
G   F             G     C
for the shores of Ameri-ca
C  F            C
My love I leave behind me now
C F       C     G
I can no longer stay 
G   F               C
The orders fromm the castle come
C  F   C       G         Em
by the Duke's right hand 
Em  C         Em     F           G
I   fear that I must leave thee there
G      F        G       C
on the Braes of Suther- land
