The Kielder Hunt

Am                                              G                   Am
Hark hark I hear Lang Will's clear voice sound through the Kielder Glen,
                           C                  F                Am
Where the raven flaps her glossy wing and the fell fox has his den,
                             C                F                   Am
There the shepherds they are gathering up wi' monie a guid yauld grew,
                  C                 Dm                  Am
An' wiry terrier game an' keen an' fox-hound fleet and true.

CHORUS
      C          Em
Hark away! Hark away!
         F               G               Am
O'er the bonnie hills o' Kielder, hark away.

Am                                     G             Am
Away an' away o'er bank and brae they drive the wily game,
                   C                 F                Am
Where Moudy, Ruby, Royal still uphaud their glorious fame;
                             C          F                    Am
An' see the lish yald shepherd lads how Monkside heights they climb,
                           C                 Dm             Am
They're the pride o' a' the Borders wide for wind and wiry limb.

CHORUS
      C          Em
Hark away! Hark away!
         F               G               Am
O'er the bonnie hills o' Kielder, hark away.

Am                                          G                 Am
Thro' yon wild glen they view him now right for the Yearning Linn,
                         C                  F                Am
By cairn an' crag, o'er moss and hagg, sae glorious was the din;
                          C                     F               Am
Weel dune, hurrah! they've run him doun, yon's Moudy twirls him now,
                      C               Dm               Am
The hunt is done, his brush is won, I hear the death halloo.

CHORUS
      C          Em
Hark away! Hark away!
         F               G               Am
O'er the bonnie hills o' Kielder, hark away.
