(slightly changed)

It follows the version of the song, as played by the Corries. They play it with capo on the 5th fret,
but personally I prefer to sing it quite a bit deeper: Either without capo, or even transposed down a little.
The orthography used here doesn't depict the Scottish pronunciation. Just listen to the song, to get that:

For the background and meaning of the song, see Wikipedia; it's definitely worth reading.




  C      Am      F     Am
O wither away my bonny maid
   C           Am         Dm7  G7
So late and so far in the gloaming?
    F            Am      F    Dm7     F
The mist gathers grey on moorland and brae;
  C         F           G7   C
O wither so far are you roaming?




  C            Am            F             C
O you take the high road and I'll take the low;
C          Am         Dm7  G7
I'll be in Scotland before you,
    F         Am             F     Dm7    F
For me and my true love will never meet again
       C            F             G7  C
By the bonny, bonny banks of Loch Lomond.




  C          Am            F            Am
I trusted my own love last night in the broom,
   C          Am          Dm7 G7
My Donald who loves me so dearly;
        F              Am        F   Dm7    F
For the morrow he will march for Edinburugh town
   C             F               G7  C
To fight for his king and Prince Charlie.




  C          Am       F              Am
O well may I weep for yestreen in my sleep -
   C               Am           Dm7 G7
We stood bride and bridegroom together;
        F            Am             F    Dm7    F
But his arms and his breath were as cold as the death,
        C                 F          G7  C
And his heart's blood ran red in the heather.




  C            Am            F             C
O you take the high road and I'll take the low;
C          Am         Dm7  G7
I'll be in Scotland before you,
    F         Am             F     Dm7    F
For me and my true love will never meet again
       C            F             G7  C
By the bonny, bonny banks of Loch Lomond.




   C            Am        F         Am
As dauntless in battle as tender in love,
     C             Am          Dm7 G7
He'd yield never a foot to the foeman;
    F     Am             F     Dm7    F
But never again from the field of the slain
       C             F            G7 C
To his Moira will he come by Loch Lomond.




    C           Am         F             Am
The thistle may bloom, the king have his own,
         C           Am          Dm7 G7
And fond lovers will meet in the gloaming;
    F         Am             F   Dm7    F
And me and my true love will yet meet again
     C              F             G7 C
Far above the bonny banks of Loch Lomond.




  C            Am            F             C
O you take the high road and I'll take the low;
C          Am         Dm7  G7
I'll be in Scotland before you,
    F         Am             F     Dm7    F
For me and my true love will never meet again
       C            F             G7  C
By the bonny, bonny banks of Loch Lomond.
