[Verse 1]
[D]One, two, [G]three[D][G][D][G][D]
[Bm][D][G][D][G][D][G]
[D][A][D]
From the [G]old sod to the [D]new land
We came [G]over by [D]the score
[G]We cut the ties [D]said goodbye
And [Bm]closed the old world [F#m]door
We [G]settled on [D]your Prairies
In [G]your cities and your [D]towns
There's another oatmeal savage
Every [A]time you turn [D]around
There's none more Scots
Than [G]the Scots [D]abroad
There's a place in our hearts
For the [A]old [D]sod
There's none more Scots
Than [G]the Scots [D]abroad
There's a [G]place in our [D]hearts
For the [A]old [D]sod[G][D][G][D][G][D]
[A][D]
[G]We soon found our [D]own kind?
Formed [G]clubs and social [D]nights
And we [G]practiced on each [D]other
Just [Bm]to keep our accents [F#m]right
For there's [G]more tartan [D]here
Than in [G]all the mother[D]land
We came [Bm]five hundred [D]miles
To the [A]gathering of the [D]clans
There's none [A]more [D]Scots
Than [G]the Scots [D]abroad
There's a [Bm]place in our [D]hearts
For the [A]old [F#m]sod
There's [D]none more Scots
Than [G]the Scots [D]abroad
There's a [G]place in our [D]hearts
For the [A]old [D]sod[G][D][G][D][G][D]

[A][D]
There's [G]a bar in [D]the rec room
In [G]the basement of our [D]house,
[G]A little shrine [D]to [Bm]bal lantynes
Haig and famous [D]grouse,
There's a [G]sprig of purple [D]heather
From the [G]land that once was [D]mine,
And Robbie's on the tea towel
With the [A]words to auld [D]lang syne
There's none more Scots
Than [G]the Scots [D]abroad
There's a place in our hearts
For the old sod
There's none more Scots
Than [G]the Scots [D]abroad
There's a [G]place in our [D]hearts
For the [A]old [D]sod[G][D][G][D][G][D]
[A][D]
Well [G]Canada's [D]been good to us
We've a [G]living and a [D]home
We've [G]all got central [D]heating air
And [Bm]most are on [D]the phone
I'm a cit[G]izen of both [D]countries
And [G]very proud to be,
[D]For the [Bm]thistle and the [D]maple leaf
Are the [A]emblems of the [D]free
There's none more Scots
Than [G]the Scots [D]abroad
There's a place [Bm]in our [D]hearts
For the [A]old [G]sod
[D]There's none mor[A]e Scots[D]
Than [G]the Scots [D]abroad
There's a [G]place in our [D]hearts
For the [A]old sod
[D]There's

[Verse 2]
none more Scots
Than the Scots abroad
There's a place in our hearts
For the old sod

[Verse 3]
There's [D]none more Scots
Than the Scot[G]s a[D]broad
There's [G]a place in our [D]hearts
For the [A]old [G]sod
