Four years of hard work!

[Verse 1]
Em G D
Ye Jacobites by name, lend an ear, lend an ear,
Em D Em
Ye Jacobites by name, lend an ear.
G D
Ye Jacobites by name, your faults I will proclaim,
Em G D
Your doctrines I maun blame, you shall hear, you shall hear,
Em D Em
Your doctrines I maun blame, you shall hear.

[Verse 2]
Em G D
What's right and what is wrang, by the law, by the law,
Em D Em
What's right and what is wrang, by the law.
G D
What's right and what is wrang, the short sword and the lang,
Em G D
A weak arm and a strang, for to draw, for to draw,
Em D Em
A weak arm and a strang, for to draw.

[Verse 3]
Em G D
What makes heroic strife, famed afar? famed afar?
Em D Em
What makes heroic strife, famed afar?
G D
What makes heroic strife, to whet the assasins knife,
Em G D
Or haunt a parent's life, wi' bloody war? bloody war?
Em D Em
Or haunt a parent's life, wi' bloody war?

[Verse 4]
Em G D
Then let your schemes alone, in the state, in the state,
Em D Em
Aye, let your schemes alone, in the state.
G D
Oh, leave your schemes alone, adore the rising sun,
Em G D
And leave a man undone, to his fate, to his fate,
Em D Em
Aye, leave a man undone, to his fate.

[Verse 1]
Em G D
Ye Jacobites by name, lend an ear, lend an ear,
Em D Em
Ye Jacobites by name, lend an ear.
G D
Ye Jacobites by name, your faults I will proclaim,
Em G D
Your doctrines I maun blame, you shall hear, you shall hear,
Em D Em
Your doctrines I maun blame, you shall hear.
