[E] But you know
This is a song called [Bb] that I never will play the Wild [E] Rover no more
You know no last training sound can I join in?
[Db] [Ebm] [E] I've been a while rover for many [A] a year
[E] And I spent [B] all my money on whiskey [E] and beer
But now I'm returning with gold in [A] great store
[E] And I never [B] will play the Wild Rover [E] no more
And [B] it's no name ever
[Eb] One, [E] two, three, four
No name [A] ever no [E] more
Will I play [A] the Wild Rover
[E] No never no more
I went into an alehouse where I used [A] to frequent
[E] And I told a [B] landlady me money [E] was spent
I asked her for credit she answered me [A] nay
[E] Such a custom as [B] the clancy's I can get [E] any day
[B] And it's no name ever
[B] One, two, [E] three, four
No name ever [A] no more
[E] Will I play [A] the Wild Rover
[E] No name [E] ever no more
Out of me pocket I took [A] Sovereign's Bright
[E] And the [B] landlady's eyes [E] opened wide with delight
She said I have whiskey and [A] wines of the best
[E] And the [B] words that I said lame were [E] only ingest
[B] And it's no name ever
[E] No name ever [A] no more
[E] Will I play [A] the Wild Rover
[E] No never no more
I'll go home to my parents confess what [A] I've done
And [E] I'll ask [B] them to pardon [E] their prodigal son
And if they'll caress me as of [A] times before
Then [E] I never [B] will play the Wild Rover [E] no more
And [B] it's no name [Gb] ever
[E] No name ever [A] no more
[E] Will I play [A] the Wild Rover

[Bb]
[Gm] [D]
[Eb] I'll clean up a few cups.
Let me tell you about the young fellow over here tuning his guitar.
His name is Tom Paxton.
[Gm] Hails from Oklahoma.
And [Db] he's just one of a whole batch of young people who are not only
picking guitars and singing, but making up songs.
Now this is nothing unusual.
In every part of the world, wherever people like
homemade music, they start making homemade songs.
Down in the West Indies, they have calypso songs about every event of the day.
In the old, [Bb] well, Ireland, where the Clancy's are from, why,
in the old days they had songs about every battle that they ever had with the English.
About all the bad times and the good times.
And right now, there's a whole batch of young people who are documenting
