C Emi Ami 1. When I've done the work of dayF Dmi Emi Ami and I rowed my boat awayF G Emi Ami down the waters of Loch TayD G when the evening light is fallingC Emi Ami then I look toward Ben LawersF Dmi Emi Ami where the after glories glowF G Emi Ami and I dream of two bright eyesDmi G C with a merry mouth belowF Dmi Emi Ami she's my beauteous nighean ruadhF Dmi Emi Ami she's my joy and sorrow tooF Dmi Emi Ami though I own she is not trueD G oh but I cannot live without herC Emi Ami for my heart's a boat in towF Dmi Emi Ami and I'd give the world to knowF G Emi Ami if she means to let me goDmi G C as I sing hori horo. 2. Nighean ruadh I do declare there's more beauty in your hair than all the tresses fair from Killin to Aberfeldy be they lint-white gold or brown be they blacker than the sloe they mean not as much to me as a melting flake of snow and her dance is like the gleam of the sunlight on the stream and the songs that we folk sing oh they're the songs she sings at milking but my heart is full of woe for last night she bade me go and the tears begin to flow as I sing hori horo. 3.=1.
