Chords for The New Barleycorn - When The Boys Come Rolling Home (With Lyrics)

When the boys [B] come [E] rolling home
I always will remember well the day we went away
_ [A] Sailing [E] out of Belfast [A] in the [B] morning
[E] Our hopes were on tomorrow as we kissed the girls farewell
[A] Our dreams were [E] on the day of [B] our [E] returning
[A] There'll be dancing, _ [E] romancing _
[A] And never [E] more [B] we'll roam _
[A] There'll be rolling in the hay, [E] there'll be whiskey in the tay
When the boys [B] come [E] rolling home _
We safely reached the other side to New York City fair
[A] In spite of [E] wind and rain and [A] stormy weather
[B] _
[E] We all sat down and drank a glass and wished each other well
[A] And said we'd [E] all go back again [B] together
[E] _
[A] There'll be dancing, _ [E] romancing _
[A] And never [E] more [B] we'll roam _
[A] There'll be rolling in the hay, [E] there'll be whiskey in the tay
When the boys [B] come [E] rolling home _
Now Pappy went to Boston and Joe to Buffalo
_ [A] Sam went [E] out as far as [A] California
_ [B] _
[E] I used to get some letters then but that was long ago
[A] And they always [E] spoke of Ireland [B] and [E] returning
[A] There'll be _ dancing, [E] _ _
romancing
And never more [B] we'll roam _
[A] There'll be rolling in the hay, [E] there'll be whiskey in the tay
When the boys [B] come [E] rolling home
I must be over ninety now, my grandson's by the bed
[A] Here [E] I'm in Chicago [A] and still [B] scheming
[E] He said he'd take me back again to rest my weary head
[A] And I leave [E] him a legacy [B] for [E] dreaming
[A] There'll be _ dancing, [E] _ _
romancing
And never more [B] we'll roam _
[A] There'll be rolling in the hay, [E] there'll be whiskey in the tay
When the boys [B] come [E] rolling home
[A] There'll be _ dancing, [E] _ romancing
_ And never more [B] we'll roam
[A] There'll be rolling in the hay, [E] there'll be whiskey in the tay
When the boys [B] come [E] rolling home _
