Are You Sleeping Maggie

Em	D
Mirk and rainy	is the night

	C	Em
There'	no' a staurn in a' the	carry

	D
Lightnings gleam a-	thwart the lift

	C	Em
And	winds drive wi' winter's	fury

Oh, are ye sleeping, maggie?

Em	G
Let me in, for	loud the linn

	C	Em
Is	roarin' o'er the warlock c	raigie

Fearfu' soughs the boortree bank
The rifted wood roars wild and dreary.
Loud the iron yett does clank,
And cry of howlets makes me eerie.

Abune my breath I daurna speak
For fear I rouse your waukrife daddie;
Cauld's the blast upon my cheek,
O rise, rise my bonnie lady.

She oped the door, she let him in
He cuist aside his dreepin' plaidie.
'Blaw your warst, ye rain and win'
Since, maggie, now I'm in aside ye.

Now, since ye're wauken, Maggie,
Now, since ye're wauken, Maggie,
What care I for howlet's cry,
For boortree bank or warlock craigie.
