Back Of The Moon - The Baron Of Brackley
[Intro]
G C G D7 C (2x)
[Verse 1]
G Em
Doon Deeside cam Inveray, a-whistlin' an' playin'
G C D7
An' he cam by Brackley's yetts ere the day was dawin'
C G C D7
"Oh, are ye there, Brackley, and are ye within?
C G C D7
Oor shairp swords are at yer yetts, an' we'll gaur your bluid spin"
[Verse 2]
G Em
"Rise up, Betsy Gordon, an' gie me my gun
G C D7
For though I gang oot, love, sure I'll never come in
C G C D7
Come kiss me, my Betsy, nor think I'm tae blame
C G C D7
For though I hae ae man, I'm sure they hae ten"
[Verse 3]
G Em
When Brackley was mounted and rade on his horse
G C D7
A bonnier baron ne'er rade o'er a course
C G C D7
Twa gallanter Gordons did never swords draw
C G C D7
But against three-and-thirty, fa's me, whit is twa?
[Verse 4]
G Em
Wi' their dirks and their broadswords, they did him surroun'
G C D7
And they killed bonny Brackley wi' mony's a woun'
C G C D7
Frae the heid o' the Dee tae the banks o' the Spey
C G C D7
The Gordons shall mourn him and ban Inveray
[Instrumental]
G C G D7 C (2x)
[Verse 5]
G Em
Oh, cam ye by Brackley's yetts, an' cam ye by here?
G C D7
An' saw ye his lady a-rivin' her hair?
C G C D7
Oh, an' I cam by Brackley's yetts an' I cam by here
C G C D7
An' I saw his fair lady, she wis makin' guid cheer
[Verse 6]
G Em
She was rantin' an' dancin' an' singin' wi' joy
G C D7
An' vowin' that verra nicht, she would feast Inveray
C G C D7
Well, she's laughed wi' him, danced wi' him, welcomed him in
C G C D7
She was kind tae the murderer wha had slayed her guid man
[Verse 7]
G Em
Through hedges an' ditches ye canna be sure
G C D7
But through the woods at Glentor, ye can slip in an hour
C G C D7
An' it's up spak the babe, sittin' on his mither's knee
C G C D7
Sayin', "Afore I'm a man, it's avenged I'll be"
