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

[Verse]
Dm
So boldly I did step away
F G
To go on to Dumbarton

D lad I had alang wi' me
F G
'Twas her young brother Tammy

Soon after this a letter came
F G
From Annie, as a token
Dm C
It was to show and let me know
F Dm
That the bonds of love were broken
[Verse]
Dm
D letter from my brother came
F G
With post haste it was carried

That gin I were a living man
F Dm
To come and see him married

While reading it, her brother came
F G
To ask me for a furlough
Dm C
To go and see his sister wed
F Dm
He wished to leave tomorrow
[Verse]
Dm
And when I heard young Tammy's words
F G
Within but I was weary
Dm C
Who was to be my brother's wife
F Dm
But just my only dearie
[Verse]
Dm
I said, "You may not go alone
F G
For it would sair offend me
Dm C
But you must stay and drive the coach
F Dm
For me and Captain Finlay"

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

Beneath the braes o' Boyndlie

If you wed me, I'll tend you
Dm C
Here's Captain Finlay will make us one
F Dm

Dm
I laid my broadsword across our knees
F G
We crossed our right hands over
Dm C
And Captain Finlay has made us one
F Dm
I'm husband now and lover
