Lucy Wainwright Roche - Wild Mountain Thyme

      Wild Mountain Thyme
performed by Lucy Wainwright Roche

This sounds like an old traditional ballad but I believe it was written by an Irish guy,
McPeake in the 50's. This is Lucy Wainwright Roche's version and in my humble opinion
is the best one going around these days. Depending on your gender preference, you can 
Lassie instead of Laddie. Lucy plays it in C#. Not sure if she use capo on 1st fret however.
Enjoy

Capo 1st fret

       C             Am
Oh the summertime is coming
        F                 C
And the trees are sweetly blooming
        F    G        Am
And the wild mountain thyme
       Dm                F
Blooms around the purple heather


Chorus
        C   F      C
Will ye go, Laddie go?
          F      C
And we'll all go together
        F    G        Am
To pull wild mountain thyme
    Dm                F
All around the purple heather
        C   F      C
Will ye go, Laddie go?


       C               Am
I will build my love a bower
        F                 C
By yon' clear and crystal fountain
    F     G      Am
And on it I will place
        Dm             F
All the flowers of the mountain

Chorus
        C   F      C
Will ye go, Laddie go?
          F      C
And we'll all go together
        F    G        Am
To pull wild mountain thyme
    Dm                F
All around the purple heather
        C   F      C
Will ye go, Laddie go?


      C                  Am
If my true love will not go
        F           C
I would surely find another
        F    G        Am
To pull wild mountain thyme
    Dm                F
All around the purple heather


Chorus
        C   F      C
Will ye go, Laddie go?
          F      C
And we'll all go together
        F    G        Am
To pull wild mountain thyme
    Dm                F
All around the purple heather
        C   F      C
Will ye go, Laddie go?
        C   F      C
Will ye go, Laddie go?
