Em D G G/F# Em
A wind from north is blowing from the mountain side
Em D G G/F# Em
I'm standing in the rain and I am full of pride
C G B7 Em
All my clothes are torn, | but I feel newborn
Em D G(!) D(!) Em
Just to cross the river and I’m back home
Refrain
G Gsus4 G Am
Catch me, catch me, if you can
G Gsus4 G Am
Catch me, catch me, if you can
B7 B7 Em Em
Hey men, catch me, but I don’t know, if you can
Last week I robbed the Bank of England in Glasgow Town
I took fifty-thousand pounds belonging to the crown
Yeah, they pestered me, | they were hot on my heels
Okay, they shot my horse, but they didn’t hit me
Refrain
Tomorrow I will buy a brand new wedding-dress
For the woman of my dreams living in Inverness
We will settle there | on the place she will prefer
And I will satisfy every wish of her
Refrain
…
Hey men, catch me, but I don’t know, if you can
Hey men, catch me, but I don’t know, if you can
Hey men, catch me, but I don’t know, if you can
