Lock The Door Lariston

D G D Lock the door Lariston, Lion O' Liddesdale Bm Lock the door Lariston, Lowther comes on D G D The Armstrongs are flyin', the widows are cryin' Bm Castletown is burnin' and Oliver is gone D Lock the door Lariston, high on the weather gleams Bm See how the Saxon plumes they bob on the sky D Yeoman and carbinere, billman and halberdiere A Bm F#m Bm Fierce is the battle and far is the cry D G D Bewcastle brandishes high his broad scimitar Bm Ridley is riding his fleet-footed grey D G D Hidley and Howard there, Wandel and Windermere Bm Lock the door Lariston, hold them at bay D Why dae ye smile noble Elliot o' Lariston Bm Why does the joy candle gleem in yer eye? D Ye bold border ranger, beware o' yer danger A Bm F#m Bm Your foes are relentless, determ ed and nigh D G D I hae Mangerton and Ogilvie, Raeburn and Netherby Bm Old Simm O'Whitram and a' his array D G D Come all Northumberland, Teesdale and Cumberland Bm Here at the Breakin Tower end the affray D See how they wane the proud file o' the Windermere Bm Howard, ah woe tae yer hopes o' the day D Hear the rude welkin' rend, while the Scots shouts ascend A Bm F#m Bm Elliot o' Lasriston! Elliot for aye!
