Should C auld acquaintance G be forgot
And C never brought to F mind?
Should C auld acquaintance G be forgot
And (C days of Am) auld lang C syne?

'F' For C auld lang F syne
We'll C take a cup o' G kindness yet
For (C auld Am) lang C syne

We C twa hae run a- G bout the braes
And C pou'd the gowans F fine
But we've C wander'd mony a G weary fitt
Sin' (C auld Am) lang C) syne.

We C twa hae paidl'd G in the burn
Frae C morning sun till F dine
But C seas between us G braid hae roar'd
Sin' (C auld Am) lang C) syne.

verse 4
And C there's a hand, my G trusty feire ( = frend)
And C gie's a hand o' F thine
And C we'll tak a G right gude ( or: willie waught
For (C auld Am) lang C) syne.
chorus

And C surely ye'll be your G pint-stowp
And C surely I'll be F mine
And C we'll tak a cup o' G kindness yet
For (C auld Am) lang C) syne.
