The Seekers – Wild Rover (Guitar)

                            G
I've been a wild rover this many a year

G7                    C
Spent all my money on whiskey and beer

                           F
But now I'm returning with gold in great store

G                           C
Never to be a wild rover no more

C
And it's no, no never

F               C
Never, never no more

F             C           Am
Never, never again will I be

       G        C
A wild rover no more

                     G
I went to a shanty I used to frequent

  G7                   C
I told the landlady my money was spent

                            F
I asked her for credit, she answered me 'nay'

         G                                 C
Saying, "Customers like you, I can get any day"

C
And it's no, no never

F               C
Never, never no more

F             C           Am
Never, never again will I be

       G        C
A wild rover no more

                            G
I pulled from my pocket ten sovereigns bright

    G7                     C
The landlady's eyes opened wide with delight

                              F
Saying, "I've got whiskey and wines of the best

        G                                  C
And the words that I uttered, were only in jest"

C
And it's no, no never

F               C
Never, never no more

F             C           Am
Never, never again will I be

       G        C
A wild rover no more

                                 G
I'll go home to my parents, tell them what I've done

  G7                          C
I hope they will pardon their prodigal son

                           F
And if they will do, as so often before

  G                                 C
I never will play the wild rover no more

C
And it's no, no never

F               C
Never, never no more

F             C           Am
Never, never again will I be

       G        C
A wild rover no more

C
And it's no, no never

F               C
Never, never no more

F             C           Am
Never, never again will I be

       G        C     G  C G C
A wild rover no more
