Auld Lang Syne Lyrics

Auld lang syne 
 
G                        D
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
G                   C 
and ne'er brought to mind?
G                           D 
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
G              D      G
and days of auld lang syne? 
 
chorus: 
  G            D              G              C
  For auld lang syne, my dear, For auld lang syne, 
  G                 D              C         G
  We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet, For auld lang syne. 
 
And surely, ye'll be your pint stowp! 
And surely I'll be mine! 
And we'll tak a cup o' kindness yet, 
For auld lang syne. 
 
(chorus) 
 
We twa hae run aboot the braes 
And pou'd the gowans fine; 
But we've wander'd mony a weary foot 
Sin' auld lang syne. 
 
(chorus) 
 
We two hae paidled i' the burn, 
Frae mornin' sun till dine; 
But seas between us braid hae roar'd 
Sin' auld lang syne. 
 
(chorus) 
 
And here's a hand, my trusty fiere, 
And gie's a hand o' thine; 
And we'll tak' a right gude-willy waught, 
For auld lang syne 
 
(chorus)
