I am a rake and a [D] restless one
From [E] the eastern shores of [D] late I come
To learn [E] my books and learn my trade
Some [D] call me the rake and the [E] rambling blade
I come here spending [D] money free
[E] Spending money at balls [D] and plays
[Em] At last my money [E] grew very low
So [G] to [D] robbing [Em] I did go
I [D]

robbed old Mills and I [D] do declare
I robbed [E] him in St.
James' [D] Square
I [E] robbed him of five [Em] thousand pounds
[G] Divided [D] with my [Em]
comrades round
[G] [D]
[Em] There's many a lady who [Bm] for me weeps
[E] Many a lady who for [D] me cares
[E] Pretty Nellie weeps turns down [Em] her hair
A lady [G] [D] left in dark [Em] spit

When I'm gone and I'm laid [D] away
And I [Em] find no funeral [A] priest [D] or my head
[E] All around my grave play tunes of [Em] joy
Singing away [G] goes the rake [D]
and the [E] rambling boy
Singing [G] away goes the [D] rake and the [E] rambling boy
