[Verse 1]
[G][C][G][D][G]
[C]Well,
[G]I'v[D]e b[G]een a wild robber
for many [C]a y[G]ear
And I spent all me money
on [D]whiskey and [G]beer
And now I've returned
with gold [C]and great [G]star
And I never will pay the
[D]way of robber no [G]more
And [D]it's no, nay, never
No, [G]nay, never, no more
[C]Well, [G]I play a [C]rover
No, nay, nev[G]er, [D]no more
[G]Well, I went to an alehouse
I used [C]to fre[G]quent
And I told the landlady me [D]money was [G]spent
I asked her for credit, she answered [C]me,
[G]Such custom like yours
I [D]can't have any [G]day
And [D]it's no, nay, never
[G]No, nay, never, no more
[C]Well I p[G]lay the wild rov[C]er,
nay nev[G]er no [D]more
[G]Well I pulled from me pocket
ten sover[C]eigns [G]bright
And the landlady's eyes
opene[D]d wide with delight
[G]She said I have whiskey
and wine [C]of the best
[G]And I'll take you upstairs
and [D]I'll show you the rest
[G]And [D]it's no nay never,
[G]no nay never no more
[C]Will [G]I play Wild Rover[C]?
May nev[G]er know [D]mor[G]e
[C][G][D][G]
[C][G][D][G][D]
Is there a bee in [G]this studio?[C][G][C]
[G][D]
[G]Well, I'll go to me parents,
confess [C]what I have [G]done,
And I'll ask them to pardon
[D]their prodigal [G]son.
And if they'll caress me as all
[C]times be[G]fore,
Then I never will play the
[D]wheeled rover no [G]more.
[D]And it's no, nay, never.
[G]No, nay, never, no more.
[C]Will I p[G]lay the wheeled rov[C]er?
No, nay, nev[G]er, [D]no more.
[G]And it'[D]s no, nay, never.
Not even once?
[G]No, nay, never, no more
[C]Like a r[G]over
[C]No, nay, nev[G]er, [D]no [G]more
