Massacre Of Glencoe
[Chorus]
Oh, G cruel is the snow that C sweeps Glen G coe,
and G covers the grave o' D Donald.
And G cruel was the foe that C raped Glen G coe,
and C murdered the D house o' Mac G Donald.
1. They G came in the D blizzard, we G offered them heat,
a D roof o'er their heads, G dry shoes for their D feet.
We G wined them and D dined them, G they ate of our Em meat,
and they C slept in the D house o' Mac G Donald.
[Chorus]
Oh, G cruel is the snow that C sweeps Glen G coe,
and G covers the grave o' D Donald.
And G cruel was the foe that C raped Glen G coe,
and C murdered the D house o' Mac G Donald.
2. They G came from Fort D William with G murder in mind,
the D Campbell's had orders, G King William had D signed :
Put G all to the sword, D these words G under Em lined,
and C leave none D alive called Mac G Donald.
[Chorus]
Oh, G cruel is the snow that C sweeps Glen G coe,
and G covers the grave o' D Donald.
And G cruel was the foe that C raped Glen G coe,
and C murdered the D house o' Mac G Donald.
3. They G came in the D night when the G men were asleep,
this D D band of Argyles, G through snow soft and D deep.
Like G murdering D foxes, G among helpless Em sheep,
they C slaughtered the D house o' Mac G Donald.
[Chorus]
Oh, G cruel is the snow that C sweeps Glen G coe,
and G covers the grave o' D Donald.
And G cruel was the foe that C raped Glen G coe,
and C murdered the D house o' Mac G Donald.
4. Some G died in their D beds at the G hands of the foe,
some D fled in the night, and were G lost in the D snow.
Some G lived to accuse D him, that G struck the first Em blow
but C gone was the D house of Mac G Donald
[Chorus x 2]
Oh, G cruel is the snow that C sweeps Glen G coe,
and G covers the grave o' D Donald.
And G cruel was the foe that C raped Glen G coe,
and C murdered the D house o' Mac G Donald.
