	        verse 1 
            C 
There was a soldier a Scottish soldier 
             G                      C 
Who wandered far away and soldiered far away 
                
There was none bolder with good broad shoulder 
               G                          C   
He's fought in many a fray and fought and won 
                   
He'd seen the glory and told the story 
           G                     C 
Of battles glorious and deeds victorious 
                  
But now he's sighing his heart is crying 
               G                C 
To leave these green hills of Tyrol 

C F C Because these green hills are not highland hills G C Or the island hills they're not my land's hills F C And fair as these green foreign hills may be G C F C G C They are not the hills of home
verse 2 C And now this soldier this Scottish soldier G C Who wandered far away and soldiered far away Sees leaves are falling and death is calling G C And he will fade away in that far land D He called his piper his trusty piper G C And bade him sound a lay a pibroch sad to play Upon a hill-side a Scottish hillside G C Not on these green hills of Tyrol
C F C Because these green hills are not highland hills G C Or the island hills they're not my land's hills F C And fair as these green foreign hills may be G C F C G C They are not the hills of home
verse 3 C And so this soldier this Scottish soldier G C Will wander far no more and soldier far no more And on a hillside a Scottish hillside G C You'll see that piper play his soldier home He's seen the glory he's told the story G C Of battles glorious and deeds victorious The bugles cease now he is at peace now G C Far from those green hills of Tyrol
C F C Because these green hills are not highland hills G C Or the island hills they're not my land's hills F C And fair as these green foreign hills may be G C They are not the hills of home C F C Although those green hills are not highland hills G C Or the island hills they're not my land's hills F C And fair as these green foreign hills may be G C They are not the hills of home C F C Those green hills are not highland hills G C Or the island hills they're not my land's hills F C And fair as these green foreign hills may be G C F C G C They are not the hills of home
