White Rose Of June Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Lady Nairne
 G       Em                  C            G
Noo  the bricht sun, and the soft simmer shoowers
            Em            C           Em
Deck a’ the woods and the gairden wi’ flewers;
G              Am               Em          C
But bonnie and sweet though the hale o’ them be,
        G         Am        C          G
There’s ane abune a’ that is dearest to me
                 Em               C             Em
And O, that’s the white rose, the white rose o’ June,
     G                 Em           C          Em
And may he that should wear it come back again sune!


 G            Em       C            G
It’s no on my breast, nor yet in my hair
         Em            C          Em
That the dear emblem I venture to wear;
    G               Am             Em             C
But it blooms in my heart, and its white leaves I weet,
     G            Am        C         G
When alane in the goamin’ I wander to greet,
         Em              C              Em
O’er the white rose, the white rose, o’ June;
    G                   Em          C          Em
And may he that should wear it come back again sune!


 G            Em       C                G
Mair fragrant and rich the red rose may be
 Em           C               Em
But there is nae spell to bind it to me
G               Am          Em       C
But dear to my heart and to fond memorie,
       G           Am               C         G
Though scathed and though blighted the white rose maybe
       Em             C                             Em
O the white rose, the white rose, the white rose o’ June,
   G                Em            C         Em
O may he that should wear it come back again sune!


G           Em       C                 G
And oh! may the true hearts thy perils who share,
   Em           C           Em
Remembered wi’ tears and remembered in prayer,
 G                Am    Em                C
Whom misfortune’s rude blast has sent far awa’,
      G            Am        C           G
Fair breezes bring back sune to cottage and ha’;—
             Em                C              Em
Then, O sing the white rose, the white rose o’ June,
G                    Em                  C          Em
And may he that should wear it wear Scotland’s auld croun!
