^GI've been a wild rover, for many's the ^Cyear I've ^Gspent all me ^Dmoney on whiskey and ^Gbeer But now I'm returning with gold in great ^Cstore And I ^Gnever will ^Dplay the wild rover no ^Gmore

CHO: And it's ^Dno, nay, ^D7never (clap-clap-clap-clap) ^GNo, nay, never, no ^Cmore Will I ^Gplay the wild ^Crover No, ^Gnever, ^Dno ^Gmore

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)
