Well, nine sat drinking at the wine

And they made a vow amang themselves
Am F Am
Tae fight for her on Yarrow
[Verse]
C Am
And so he's come ower yon high, high hill

And doon by the den sae narrow
C E
And there he spied nine armed men
Am F Am
Come tae fight wi' him on Yarrow
[Verse]
C Am
He says, "There's nine o' you and but one o' me
F E
It's an unequal marrow"
C E
But I'll fight ye a' noo one by one
Am F Am
On the Dowie Dens o' Yarrow

So it's three he slew and three withdrew

An' three he wounded sairly

'Til her brother, he came in beyond

And he wounded him maist foully

And bring yer sister sorrow
