Sweet Afton - Robert Burns

Chorded instead of Capo'd: G D C G Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes, Em D C D G Flow gently, I'll sing thee a song in thy praise; G D C G My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream, Em D C D G Flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dream. G D C G Thou stock-dove, whose echo resounds thro' the glen, Em D C D G Ye wild whistling blackbirds in yon thorny den, D C G Thou green-crested lapwing, thy screaming forbear, Em D C D G I charge you disturb not my slumbering fair. Em D C G How lofty, sweet Afton, thy neighboring hills, Am C D Far mark'd with the courses of clear winding rills; Bm C B Em There daily I wander as noon rises high, Am C D My flocks and my Mary's sweet cot in my eye. G D C G How pleasant thy banks and green valleys below, Em D C D G Where wild in the woodlands the primroses blow; G D C G There oft, as mild Ev'ning leaps over the lea, Em D C D G The sweet-scented birk shades my Mary and me. Em D C G Thy crystal stream, Afton, how lovely it glides, Am C D And winds by the cot where my Mary resides, B C B Em How wanton thy waters her snowy feet lave, . Am C D (Not Add9) As gathering sweet flowrets she stems thy clear wave. G D C D Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes, Em D C D G Flow gently, sweet river, the theme of my lays; D C G My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream, Em D C D G Flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dream Original Key: E B A E Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes, C#m B A B E Flow gently, I'll sing thee a song in thy praise; E B A E My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream, C#m B A B E Flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dream.
