To make it sound like a harp try some finger picking patterns

G# Fm D# (C) A# (C A#) you could eventually play the C in between
Ca' the yowes to the knowes
 G#FmD#A#1
 Call them where the heather grows
 G#1D#FmD#
 Call them where the burnie rowes
 A#D#Fm
 My bonnie dearie

 G#FmD#A#
 When I went down the water-side
 G#FmD#A#1
 To see the fishes sweetly plaid
 G#1D#FmD#
 Beneath the hazel spreading wide
 A#D#Fm
 And the moon that shines so clearly

 G#FmD#A#
When I went down the water-side
 G#FmD#A#1
'Twas there I met my shepherd lad
 G#1D#FmD#
He row'd me sweetly in his plaid
 A#D#Fm
And called me, I his dearie

 G#FmD#A#
If you'll but stand to what you've said
 G#FmD#A#1
I'll come with you, my bonnie lad
 G#1D#FmD#
And you may row me in your plaid
 A#D#Fm
And i will be your dearie

 G#FmD#A#
You will get gowns and ribbons meet
 G#FmD#A#1
And leather shoes upon your feet
 G#1D#FmD#
And in my arms you'll lie and sleep
 A#D#Fm
My bonnie dearie

 G#FmD#A#
As waters wimple to the sea
 G#FmD#A#1
While day breaks in the sky so high
 G#1D#FmD#
Till' clay-cold death shall blind my eye
 A#D#Fm
 I shall be thy dearie

 G#1D#FmD#
Till' clay-cold death shall blind my eye
 A#D#Fm
 I shall be thy dearie
