Blooming Heather by Kate Rusby

This is mainly a song for a person with a good voice, the guitar part isn't huge. The
chords used are here, I worked from the video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3B2mntKAZo

Just pick through the chords, make sure the first note is the bass note of the chord and
fairly strong. Standard tuning, no capo. Am/D = Am with open D string as th bass note,
Am/G = Am with fret 3 of the bottom E string as the bass note.

Intro: C

Verse 1

C C
Oh the summer time is coming
F C
And the trees are sweetly blooming
F Am
And the wild mountain thyme
Am/D Am/G
Grows around the blooming heather
C
Will ye go, Lassie, go


Chorus
F C
And we'll all go together
F Am
To pluck wild mountain thyme
Am/D Am/G
All around the blooming heather
C
Will ye go, Lassie, go


Verse 2
C C
I will build my love a tower
F C
By yon' pure crystal fountain
F Am
And on it i will build
Am/D Am/G
All the flowers of the mountain
C
Will ye go, Lassie, go


Chorus
F C
And we'll all go together
F Am
To pluck wild mountain thyme
Am/D Am/G
All around the blooming heather
C
Will ye go, Lassie, go


Here it has an instrumental bit, which uses the same chord pattern as the verse.

Verse 3
C C
If my true love she were gone
F C
I would surely find another
F Am
To pluck wild mountain thyme
Am/D Am/G
Grows around the blooming heather
C
Will ye go, Lassie, go


Chorus
F C
And we'll all go together
F Am
To pluck wild mountain thyme
Am/D Am/G
All around the blooming heather
C
Will ye go, Lassie, go
F C
And we'll all go together
F Am
To pluck wild mountain thyme
Am/D Am/G
All around the blooming heather
C
Will ye go, Lassie, go

C
End: Let us go, Lassie, go
