Adam Cameron is my name
G# A#
I'm second son to Boyndlie
Fm D#
My brother John, he heirs the land
G# Fm
And a soldier now you'll find me
[Verse]
Fm
Parting with my bonnie love
G# A#
Her hand in mine was locke'd
Fm D#
And for to drive dull care away
G# Fm
I spoke as if I joke'd
[Verse]
Fm
"It's farewell, Cameron, step abroad
G# A#
Though you say I'm your charmer
Fm D#
I've kept the best part to myself
G# Fm
And I'll wed some brisk young farmer"
[Verse]
Fm
"Since you have kept the part from me
G# A#
For which I've long been searching
Fm D#
The fifes do play a merry tune
G# Fm
And the drums beat loud for marching"

[Verse]
Fm
So boldly I did step away
G# A#
To go on to Dumbarton
Fm D#
And I had on my Highland dress
G# Fm
As lieutenant to the captain
[Verse]
Fm
F lad I had alang wi' me
G# A#
'Twas her young brother Tammy
Fm D#
And ay, when he did smile on me
G# Fm
Reminded me o' Annie
[Verse]
Fm
Soon after this a letter came
G# A#
From Annie, as a token
Fm D#
It was to show and let me know
G# Fm
That the bonds of love were broken
[Verse]
Fm
F letter from my brother came
G# A#
With post haste it was carried
Fm D#
That gin I were a living man
G# Fm
To come and see him married
[Verse]
Fm
While reading it, her brother came
G# A#
To ask me for a furlough
Fm D#
To go and see his sister wed
G# Fm
He wished to leave tomorrow
[Verse]
Fm
And when I heard young Tammy's words
G# A#
Within but I was weary
Fm D#
Who was to be my brother's wife
G# Fm
But just my only dearie
[Verse]
Fm
I said, "You may not go alone
G# A#
For it would sair offend me
Fm D#
But you must stay and drive the coach
G# Fm
For me and Captain Finlay"
[Verse]

So we drove on and further on
G# A#
It's homeward bound you'll find me

And there I met my bonnie love
G# Fm
Beneath the braes o' Boyndlie
[Verse]

"Could you love a sodger noo

G# A#
We crossed our right hands over
Fm D#
And Captain Finlay has made us one
G# Fm
I'm husband now and lover
