The Scotsman Song Tabulatur von Irish Rovers

C                    F              G               C
Well a Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar one evening fair
C                     F                       C                   G
And one could tell by how he walked that he'd drunk more than his share
F                  C               F               G
He fumbled round until he could no longer keep his feet
        C        G     C      F        G                C
Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street
F                               C                G
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
   C        G     C      F        G                C
He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street
C                   F                G                   C
About that time two young and lovely girls just happened by
C                   F            C              G
And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye
F                  C           F                   G
See young sleeping Scotsman so strong and handsome built
  C      G       C    F               G                C
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt
F                               C                G
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
  C      G       C    F               G                C
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt
C                     F                 G              C
They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be
C             F             C                  G
Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see
F                     C               F                  G
And there behold, for them to view, beneath his Scottish skirt
    C       G         C       F          G             C
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth
F                               C                G
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
    C       G         C       F          G             C
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth
C                   F                G               C
They marveled for a moment, then one said we must be gone
C                     F               C              G
Let's leave a present for our friend, before we move along
F                     C                 F           G
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon, tied into a bow
 C         G      C        F     G                 C
Around the bonnie star the Scots kilt did lift and show
F                               C                G
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
 C         G      C        F     G                 C
Around the bonnie star the Scots kilt did lift and show
C                        F                 G                   C
Now the Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled toward the trees
C                 F                  C                G
Behind a bush, he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees
F                 C                F                 G
And in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes
  C     G          C         F          G                 C
O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize
F                               C                G
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
  C     G          C         F          G                 C
O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize
