The Wild Rover
The Dubliners
G G G G
I've Gbeen a wild rover for many a Cyear
I Gspent all me Cmoney on D7whiskey and Gbeer
But Gnow I'm returning with gold in great Cstore
And I Gnever will Cplay the wild D7rover no Gmore
And it's D7no nay never, Gno nay never no Cmore
Will I Gplay the wild Crover, no D7never, no Gmore
I Gwent in to an alehouse I used to freCquent
And I Gtold the landClady me D7money was Gspent
I Gasked her for credit, she answered me "CNay!"
"Such Gcustom as Cyours I could D7have any Gday!"
And it's D7no nay never, Gno nay never no Cmore
Will I Gplay the wild Crover, no D7never, no Gmore
I Gtook out of me pocket ten sovereigns Cbright
And the Glandlady's Ceyes opened D7wide with Gdelight
She Gsaid: "I have whiskeys and wines on the Cbest!
And the Gwords that I Ctold you were D7only in Gjest!"
And it's D7no nay never, Gno nay never no Cmore
Will I Gplay the wild Crover, no D7never, no Gmore
I'll go Ghome to my parents, confess what I've Cdone
And Gask them to Cpardon their D7prodigal Gson
And Gwhen they've caressed me as oftimes Cbefore
I Gnever will Cplay the wild D7rover no Gmore.
And it's D7no nay never, Gno nay never no Cmore
Will I Gplay the wild Crover, no D7never, no Gmore
And it'D7s no nay neveGr, no nay never Cno more
Will I Gplay the wild Crover, no D7never, no Gmore
