VERSE 1

Am G Am
Hark hark I hear Lang Will's clear voice sound through the Kielder Glen,
C F Am
Where the raven flaps her glossy wing and the fell fox has his den,
C F Am
There the shepherds they are gathering up wi' monie a guid yauld grew,
C Dm Am
An' wiry terrier game an' keen an' fox-hound fleet and true.

CHORUS
C Em
Hark away! Hark away!
F G Am
O'er the bonnie hills o' Kielder, hark away.

VERSE 2

Am G Am
Away an' away o'er bank and brae they drive the wily game,
C F Am
Where Moudy, Ruby, Royal still uphaud their glorious fame;
C F Am
An' see the lish yald shepherd lads how Monkside heights they climb,
C Dm Am
They're the pride o' a' the Borders wide for wind and wiry limb.

CHORUS
C Em
Hark away! Hark away!
F G Am
O'er the bonnie hills o' Kielder, hark away.

VERSE 3

Am G Am
Thro' yon wild glen they view him now right for the Yearning Linn,
C F Am
By cairn an' crag, o'er moss and hagg, sae glorious was the din;
C F Am
Weel dune, hurrah! they've run him doun, yon's Moudy twirls him now,
C Dm Am
The hunt is done, his brush is won, I hear the death halloo.

CHORUS
C Em
Hark away! Hark away!
F G Am
O'er the bonnie hills o' Kielder, hark away.
