[Intro]
| G | - | - | - |
[Verse 1]
G C
I've been a wild rover for manys a year
G D7 G
And I spent all me money on whiskey and beer
C
But now I'm returning with gold in great store
G D7 G
And I never will play the wild rover no more
[Chorus]
D7
And it's no, nay, never
G C
No, nay, never no more
G C
Will I play the wild rover
G D7 G
No, never, no more
[Verse 2]
G C
I went into an alehouse I used to frequent
G D7 G
And I told the landlady me money was spent
I asked her for credit,
C
she answered me "nay
G D7 G
Such a custom as yours I can have everyday"
[Chorus]
D7
And it's no, nay, never
G C
No, nay, never no more
G C
Will I play the wild rover
G D7 G
No, never, no more
[Verse 3]
G C
I then took from me pocket ten sovereigns bright
G D7 G
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
C
She says "I have whiskeys and wines of the best
G D7 G
And the words that you told me were only in jest"
[Chorus]
D7
And it's no, nay, never
G C
No, nay, never no more
G C
Will I play the wild rover
G D7 G
No, never, no more
[Verse 4]
G
I'll go home to my parents,
C
confess what I've done
G D7 G
And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
C
And when they've caressed me as ofttimes before
G D7 G
I never will play the wild rover no more
[Chorus]
D7
And it's no, nay, never
G C
No, nay, never no more
G C
Will I play the wild rover
G D7 G
No, never, no more
[Outro]
D7
And it's no, nay, never
G C
No, nay, never no more
G C
Will I play the wild rover
G D7 G
No, never, no more
