[G] .

I've been a wild rover for many's the [C] year .
And [G] I've spent all me money [D] on whiskey [G] and beer .
But now I'm returning with gold in [C] great store.

And it's no nay matter .
No nay never [C] no more.
Will [G] I play the [C] wild rover.
[G] No never no more.
I went into an alehouse I used to [C] frequent .
And I [G] told the [D].
landlady me [G] money was spent.
I asked her for credit she answered [C] me nay.
[G] Such a custom [D] as yours I [G] can have every day.
And it's no nay matter .
No nay never [C] no more.
Will [G] I play the [C].
wild rover.
[G] No never no more.
I then took from me pocket ten [C] sovereigns bright.
[G] And the [D] landlady's eyes opened wide [G] with delight.
She says I have whiskies and the wines of [C] the best.

And [D] it's no nay [G] never .
No nay [C] never no more.

I'll go home to my parents confess what [C] I've done.
[G] And I'll ask them [D] to pardon their [G] .
prodigal son .
And when they've caressed me as oft [C] times before.
[G] I never will [D] play the [G] wild rover no more.
And it's no nay never .
No nay never [C] no more.
Will [G] I play the [C] wild rover.
[G].
No never no more.
And it's no nay never .
No nay never [C] no more.
