[Verse 1]
G
      G      C        G
O the summer time has come
        C                 G
And the trees are sweetly bloomin'
        C    G  G/F#  Em
And the wild mountain thyme
       C         Am       C
Grows around the bloomin' heather
 
 
[Chorus]
        G  C      G
Will ye go lassie go?
          C        G
And we'll all go together
        C    G  G/F#  Em
To pull wild mountain thyme
     C         Am       C
All around the bloomin' heather
        G  C      G
Will ye go lassie go?
 
 
[Verse 2]
       G        C      G
I will build my love a bower
       C            G
By yon cool crystal fountain
    C        G G/F#  Em
And round it I  will pile
        C       Am          C
All the wild flowers o' the mountain
 
 
[Chorus]
        G  C      G
Will ye go lassie go?
          C        G
And we'll all go together
        C    G  G/F#  Em
To pull wild mountain thyme
     C         Am       C
All around the bloomin' heather
        G  C      G
Will ye go lassie go?
 
 
[Verse 3]
       G     C           G
I will range through the wilds
        C             G
And the deep glen sae dreary
      C    G  G/F#   Em
And return wi' their spoils
        C     Am    C
Tae the bower o' my dearie
 
 
[Chorus]
        G  C      G
Will ye go lassie go?
          C        G
And we'll all go together
        C    G  G/F#  Em
To pull wild mountain thyme
     C         Am       C
All around the bloomin' heather
        G  C      G
Will ye go lassie go?
 
 
[Verse 4]
      G         C          G
If my true love she'll not come
          C            G
Then I'll surely find another
        C    G  G/F#  Em
To pull wild mountain thyme
     C         Am       C
All around the bloomin' heather
 
 
[Chorus]
        G  C      G
Will ye go lassie go?
          C        G
And we'll all go together
        C    G  G/F#  Em
To pull wild mountain thyme
     C         Am       C
All around the bloomin' heather
        G  C      G
Will ye go lassie go?

Best version I've seen by miles, sounds nice with G5 and C add 9 where you keep 4th and 5th fingers on top two strings while changing between those chords

minor detail, but I believe it should be " deep glen so dreary"

I finally found the version that has all the words.
