[A]
I have been [Bm] a rover, [E] I have walked [A] alone, [D] [A] Hiked a hundred [Bm] highways, [E] never found [A] a home.
[F#m] Still and all [C#m] I'm happy, [D] the reason is [B] you see,
[A] Once in [Bm] a while [D] along [B] the way, [A] [E] love's been good [A] to me.
There was [Bm] a girl [E] in Denver [Bm] before [E] the summer [A] storm,
[C#m] [F#m] Oh her [C#m] eyes were tender, [D] oh her arms [E] were warm,
And [A] she could [C#] smile [F#m] away the thunder, [A] [D] kiss away [B] the rain.
[A] And even [Bm] though she's gone away, [A] you won't [E] hear me [A] complain.
I have [Bm] been a rover,
[E] I have walked [A] alone, Hiked a hundred [Bm] highways,
[E] never found [A] a home.
[G#]
[F#m] Still and all [C#m] I'm happy,
[D] the reason is you [B] see,
[A] Once in [Bm] a while [D] along the [B] way,
[A] love's [E] been good [A] to me.
There was [Bm] a girl [E] in Portland [Bm] before [E] the winter [A] chill,
[C#m]
[F#m] We used to go [C#m] a-courting [D] along October [E] Hill,
And she [A] could laugh [C#] away the [F#m] dark [A] clouds,
[D] cry away the [B] snow.
[A] It seems [Bm] like only yesterday, [A] as down [E] the road [A] I go.
I have been [Bm] a rover, [E] I have walked [A] alone, [D] [A] Hiked a hundred [Bm] highways, [E] never found [A] a home.
[C#m] [F#m] Still and all [C#m] I'm happy, [D] the reason is you [B] see,
[A] Once in a [Bm] while [D] along [B] the way, [A]
love's [E] been good to [A]
me.
