The Drunk Scotsman Tabulatur von Traditional Scottish (für Baryton)

[Verse]
 
     C                F             G               C
Well Scotsman clad in kilt left the bar one evening fair
C                 F                        C                   G
One could tell by how he walked, that he'd drunk more than his share.
   F             C               F               G
He stumbled on until he could no longer keep his feet,
        C              F                G                C
Then he staggered off into the grass to sleep beside the street.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F                                C                G
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, ring di diddle I Oh
   C              F                G                C
He staggered off into the grass to sleep beside the street.
 
 
[Verse]
 
     C       F                G                   C
Later on two young and lovely girls just happened by,
C               F            C              G
One says to the other with a twinkle in her eye.
F                C            F                   G
See yon sleeping Scotsman, so strong and handsome built,
     C           F                    G               C
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F                                C                G
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, ring di diddle I Oh
     C           F                    G               C
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt.
 
 
[Verse]
 
     C                F                 G              C
They crept up to that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be,
C             F              C                   G
Lifted up his kilt above the waist so they could see.
F                    C               F                 G
And there behold for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt,
     C                F                  G             C
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F                                C                G
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, ring di diddle I Oh
     C                F                  G             C
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth.
 
 
[Verse]
 
     C              F               G                 C
They marveled for a moment then one said we'd best 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            F                 G            C
Around the bonnie star of the Scots kilt lifting show.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F                                C                G
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, ring di diddle I Oh
     C            F                 G            C
Around the bonnie star of the Scots kilt lifting show.
 
 
[Verse]
 
     C                F                G                  C
The Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled towards a tree,
C                F                  C                G
Behind a bush he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees.
F                  C                F                 G
Then in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes,
     C            F                       G                    C
My friend I dunno where you've been but I see you've won first prize.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F                                C                G
Ring ding diddle iddle I dee oh, ring di diddle I Oh
     C            F                       G                    C
My friend I dunno where you've been but I see you've won first prize.
