The Wild Rover

G C

I've been a wild rover, for many's the year

G D G

I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer

C

But now I'm returning with gold in great store

G D G

And I never will play the wild rover no more

D D7

CHO: And it's no, nay, never (clap-clap-clap-clap)

G C

No, nay, never, no more

G C

Will I play the wild rover

G D G

No, never, no more

I went to an ale house, I used to frequent

And I told the landlady me money was spent

I asked her for credit, she answered my nay

Such a custom as yours I can get any day

(chorus)

I brought from my pocket, ten souvereigns bright

And the landladys eyes opened wide with delight

She said I have whiskeys and wines of the best

And the words that I told you were only in jest

(chorus)

I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done

And I'll ask that the pardon their prodigal son

And if the caress me, as oft times before

I never will play the wild rover no more

(chorus)
