\begin{verse}
|
||
I’ve \chord{D}been a wild rover for many a \chord{G}year, \\
|
||
I \chord{D}spend all my money on \chord{A}whiskey and beer. \\
|
||
But now I’m returning with gold in great \chord{G}store \\
|
||
and I \chord{D}never will play the wild \chord{A}rover no \chord{D}more.
|
||
\end{verse}
|
||
|
||
\begin{verse}
|
||
And it’s \chord{A}no, nay, never, no nay \chord{D}never no \chord{G}more \\
|
||
will I \chord{D}play the wild \chord{G}rover no \chord{D}never, \chord{A}no \chord{D}more.

\begin{verse}
|
||
I went to an ale-house where I used to frequent, \\
|
||
and I told the landlady my money was spent, \\
|
||
I asked her for credit, she answered me nay, \\
|
||
such a custom of yours I can have any day.
|
||
\end{verse}
|
||
|
||
\begin{verse}
|
||
And it’s no, nay, never...
|
||
\end{verse}
|
||
|
||
\begin{verse}
|
||
I took from my pocket, ten sovereigns bright, \\
|
||
and the landlady’s eyes opened wide with delight. \\
|
||
She said I have whiskey and wines of the best \\
|
||
and the words that I said sure were only in jest.
|
||
\end{verse}
|
||
|
||
\begin{verse}
|
||
And it’s no, nay, never...

|
||
|
||
\begin{verse}
|
||
I’ll go home to my parents, confess what I’ve done, \\
|
||
I’ll ask them to pardon their prodigal son, \\
|
||
and if they caress me as oft times before, \\
|
||
then I never will play the wild rover no more.
|
||
\end{verse}

\begin{verse}
|

And it’s no, nay, never…
