The Wild Rover

     G                            
I've been a wild rover for many a 
C
year
  G            C        D7       
I spent all me money on whiskey 
   G
and beer
    G                              
But now I'm returning with gold in 
      C
great store
    G            C        D7     
And I never will play the wild 
       G
rover no more

Refrão:
            D7           G     
   And it's no nay never, no nay 
           C
never no more
          G             C         
   Will I play the wild rover, no 
D7        G
never, no more

  G                                
I went in to an alehouse I used to 
   C
frequent
      G            C       D7    
And I told the landlady me money 
    G
was spent
  G                                
I asked her for credit, she 
      C
answered me "Nay!"

      G         C             D7 
"Such custom as yours I could 
      G
have any day!"

Refrão:
            D7           G     
   And it's no nay never, no nay 
           C
never no more
          G             C         
   Will I play the wild rover, no 
D7        G
never, no more

  G                        
I took out of me pocket ten 
            C
sovereigns bright
        G          C           D7
And the landlady's eyes opened 
          G
wide with delight
    G                              
She said: "I have whiskeys and 
         C
wines on the best!
        G            C             
And the words that I told you were 
D7      G
only in jest!"

Refrão:
            D7           G     
   And it's no nay never, no nay 
           C
never no more
          G             C         
   Will I play the wild rover, no 
D7        G
never, no more

        G                          
I'll go home to my parents, confess
           C
 what I've done
    G           C          
And ask them to pardon their 
  D7       G
prodigal son
    G                          
And when they've caressed me as 
           C
oftimes before
  G          C             D7    
I never will play the wild rover 
   G
no more.

          G             C         
   Will I play the wild rover, no 
D7        G
never, no more
            D7           G     
   And it's no nay never, no nay 
           C
never no more
          G             C         
   Will I play the wild rover, no
