Auld Lang Syne
Words by Robert Burns
 
Best song to ever ring in the New Year. This may not be completely correct, but
it sounds pretty good to my ears. Happy holidays, and enjoy!
 
[Verse 1]
        G                D
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
    Em               C
And never brought to mind?
       G                 D
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
    Em   C    G
And auld lang syne!
 
[Chorus]
    G         D
For auld lang syne, my dear,
    G         C
For auld lang syne.
      G             D
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
    Em   C    G
For auld lang syne.
 
[Verse 2]
      G                D
And surely you’ll buy your pint cup!
     Em              C
And surely I’ll buy mine!
           G             D
And we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
     Em  C    G
for auld lang syne.
 
[Chorus]
    G         D
For auld lang syne, my dear,
    G         C
For auld lang syne.
      G             D
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
    Em   C    G
For auld lang syne.
 
[Verse 3]
   G              D
We two have run about the slopes,
     Em                 C
And picked the daisies fine;
           G              D
But we’ve wandered many a weary foot,
      Em   C    G
Since auld lang syne.
 
[Chorus]
    G         D
For auld lang syne, my dear,
    G         C
For auld lang syne.
      G             D
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
    Em   C    G
For auld lang syne.
 
[Verse 4]
   G                D
We two have paddled in the stream,
      Em               C
From morning sun till dine;
      G              D
But seas between us broad have roared
      Em   C    G
Since auld lang syne.
 
[Chorus]
    G         D
For auld lang syne, my dear,
    G         C
For auld lang syne.
      G             D
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
    Em   C    G
For auld lang syne.
 
[Verse 5]
     G                D
And there’s a hand my trusty friend!
    Em                 C
And give me a hand o’ thine!
    G                  D
And we’ll take a right good-will draught,
      Em  C    G
For auld lang syne.
 
[Chorus]
    G         D
For auld lang syne, my dear,
    G         C
For auld lang syne.
      G             D
We'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
    Em   C    G
For auld lang syne.

I appreciate having the fully lyrics. Transposed to the key of C, I added a G#minor diminished on the word "yet" on all the choruses.
