Scottish Songs for Guitar: Cam Ye O'er Frae France

The Scots are second to none in their willingness and ability to mock the gentry in song lyrics. 'Cam Ye O'er Frae France' dates from the time of the Jacobite Rebellion in the 18th century, when the German King George came over and founded the House of Hanover. The guitar setting is spare and the time signature a stately, martial 3/4.
