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

        G                  
And its no nay nerver,
C               F
No nay never no more,
       C             F
Will I play the wild rover,
   G        C
no never no more,


(Tempo Change)

     C                           F
Went into an ale house I used to frequent,
      C       F           G         C
And I Told my landlady me money was spent,
                                       F
She asked me for credit I answerded her "NAY!",
      C         F             G          C
"Such custom as yours I could have any a day!",


        G                  
And its no nay nerver,
C               F
No nay never no more,
       C             F
Will I play the wild rover,
   G        C
no never no more,


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


        G                  
And its no nay nerver,
C               F
No nay never no more,
       C             F
Will I play the wild rover,
   G        C
no never no more,

        G                  
And its no nay nerver,
C               F
No nay never no more,
       C             F
Will I play the wild rover,
   G        C
no never no more,
