Verse 
N.C. 
I lie in this cage in full public gaze 
N.C. 
And I don't give a pin for all their scorn 
N.C. 
For I've crowned my lover king 
N.C. 
Ah, such glorious days I've seen 
N.C. 
Give me the chance, I'd do it all again 
                                   A 
Give me the chance, I'd do it all again 

Verse 
          E                A     E    A 
Robbie my love, you've the heart of a dove 
                                 D 
Only Scotland could raise such a man 
       A            D 
On the wild mountainside 
       A                 D 
I have lain down by your side 
   Bm           A               D 
In spite of the bitter wind and rain 
   A            Bm     E        A 
In spite of the bitter wind and rain 

Verse 
                    E          A     E          A 
These soft southern dogs, have never scaled the heights 
                             D 
They cower in their comfort, secure 
    A               D 
But he has dared it all 
         A                   D 
And he's risked the fearsome fall 
       Bm                 A             D 
Surely god will crown the brave and the sure 
       A                  Bm    E       A 
Surely god will crown the brave and the sure

Verse 
                E          A        E          A 
At proud Bannockburn their cringing hearts did turn 
                             D 
From his noble and daring campaign 
          A              D 
I watched from a distant hill 
       A                    D 
And my heart flies with him still 
          Bm          A         D 
Though my body may be caged and disdained 
          A           Bm    E   A 
Though my body may be caged and disdained 

Verse 
                  E            A      E    A 
He's as bold as a ram, he's as gentle as a lamb 
                                 D 
He's a man that could never be denied 
      A            D 
He is generous and gay 
         A             D 
But he's changeable as day 
        Bm                 A               D 
And for just one hour with him, I'd gladly die 
        A                  Bm       E      A 
And for just one hour with him, I'd gladly die
