Verse 1:
          Abm                            E               B
There's a girl from Aberfeldy, she's got diamonds on her feet
    Gb                              E             Abm
She wraps her wicked fingers around every man she meets
    Abm                                  E            B
She sways just like a serpent, she's got venom on her tongue
    Gb                      E                Abm
Got everyone believing that they're the only one

  Oh, Arabella

Chorus:
       Abm                                  E                 B
If you see her, will you tell her I've been searching low and high?
    Gb                         E               Abm
The fields of Aberfeldy to the hills of Old Kintyre

Arabella, Arabella, oh, she's always on my mind

   Gb      E  Abm

Verse 2:
    Abm                        E                 B
I remember when I met her in a room of smoke and flame
Gb                            E              Abm
Draped in red and silent, she never gave her name
    Abm                             E               B
The whiskey made me fearless as the fire lit up her hair
Gb                                 E               Abm
Kissed me like a promise, then she vanished in the air

The fields of Aberfeldy to the hills of Old Kintyre

Arabella, Arabella, oh, she's always on my mind

With warning signs that burn deep in her eyes
Eb7                    Abm
   Every time I try to run, I'm drawn back in
       E             B            Eb7
You're tearing up my skin, oh, Arabella
