And there's Dfire in the Dmaj7glen, Bsus2fire in the Fmglen!
But no Gfire in the eyes of our AHiAsus4ghland     A  Gmen...
[Verse 2]
ADnd the laird hDmaj7as a smile for Bsus2the makerFms of graves
FGor the builders of empires Aand Asus4the kAeepers of slaves
FoDr he kept his Dmaj7great home losing Bsus2nothing but Fmpride
