Am           Em
Gentlemen it is me duty
     Am                Em
To inform you of one beauty
           Am            Em
Though I'd ask of you a favor
         C       G      Em
Not to seek her for a while
         Am             Em
Though I own she is a creature
     Am           Em
Of character and feature
     Am                  Em
No words can paint the picture
        C        G    Am
Of the Queen of all Argyll


[Chorus]
        Am             Em
And if you could have seen her there
Am                Em        G
Boys, if you had just been there
     Am                Em
The swan was in her movements
         C      G        Em
And the morning in her smile
         Am           Em
All the roses in the garden
      Am              Em
They bow and ask her pardon
         Am                  Em
For not one could match the beauty
        C        G    Am
Of the Queen of all Argyll


[Verse 2]
       Am             Em
On the evening that I mentioned
   Am                  Em
I passed with light intention
           Am            Em
Through a part of our dear country
          C       G      Em
Known for beauty and for style
         Am              Em
Being a place of noble thinkers
     Am               Em
Of scholars and great drinkers
     Am                Em
But above them all for splendor
           C        G    Am
Shone the Queen of all Argyll


[Chorus]
        Am             Em
And if you could have seen her there
Am                Em        G
Boys, if you had just been there
     Am                Em
The swan was in her movements
         C      G        Em
And the morning in her smile
         Am           Em
All the roses in the garden
      Am              Em
They bow and ask her pardon
         Am                  Em
For not one could match the beauty
        C        G    Am
Of the Queen of all Argyll


[Verse 3]
      Am                Em
So my lads I needs must leave you
     Am                Em
My intentions no' to grieve you
      Am             Em
Nor indeed would I deceive you
         C       G      Em
Oh, I'll see you in a while
        Am              Em
I must find some way to gain her
    Am              Em
To court her and to tame her
  F                  G
I fear my heart's in danger
          Em            Am
From the Queen of all Argyll


[Chorus]
        Am             Em
And if you could have seen her there
Am                Em        G
Boys, if you had just been there
     Am                Em
The swan was in her movements
         C      G        Em
And the morning in her smile
         Am           Em
All the roses in the garden
      Am              Em
They bow and ask her pardon
         Am                  Em
For not one could match the beauty
        C        G    Am
Of the Queen of all Argyll

        Am             Em
And if you could have seen her there
Am                Em        G
Boys, if you had just been there
     Am                Em
The swan was in her movements
         C      G        Em
And the morning in her smile
         Am           Em
All the roses in the garden
      Am              Em
They bow and ask her pardon
         F                  G
For not one could match the beauty
        Em             Am
Of the Queen of all Argyll
