Archie Fisher - I Am A Freeborn Man Chords

[Intro]
G
 
[Verse]
                          C             D
I'm a freeborn man of the travellin' people
                                     G
Got no fixed abode, as nomads we are numbered
        D                     G      C
Country lanes and byways were always my ways
        G       Am    F  G
I never fancied bein' longer
 
[Verse]
                             C          D
I know all the woods and the resting places
                                               G
And the small birds sang when winter days were over
         D                   G      C
Then I'd pack my load and be on the road
                    G    Am    F G
Those were good old days for a rover
 
[Verse]
                                  C        D
Now I've known life hard and I've had it easy
                                               G
And I've cursed the life when winter days were dawning
         D                            G           C
But I've laughed and sung through the whole night long
                G       Am     F   G
Seen the summer sunrise in the morning
 
[Verse]
                            C             D
All you freeborn men of the travellin' people
                                         G
All you tinkers, rolling stones or gypsy rovers
         D                       G        C
Winds of change are blowin', old ways are going
              G         Am      F G
Your ramblin' days will soon be over
