[Verse 1]
     A                            D
I've been a wild rover for many a year
      A            D        E          A
And I spent all me money on whiskey and beer
    A                                    D
But now I'm returning with gold in great store
      A          D             E       A
And I never will play the wild rover no more
 
     A                                   D
Went in to an alehouse I used to frequent
      A            D       E        A
And I told the landlady me money was spent
  A                                      D
I asked her for credit, she answered me "Nay!"
      A         D             E       A
"Such custom as yours I could have any day!"
 
[Chorus]
3/4:
          E             A                D
 And it's no, nay, never, no nay never no more
        A             D         E        A
 Will I play the wild rover, no never, no more
 
[Verse 3]

       A                                  D
I then took from me pocket ten sovereigns bright
        A          D           E          A
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
    A                                       D
She said: "I have whiskeys and wines on the best!
        A              D             E      A
And the words that you told me were only in jest!"
 
        A                                     D
I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done
      A           D            E       A
And I ask them to pardon their prodigal son
    A                                     D
And when they've caressed me as oftimes before
  A          D             E       A
I never will play the wild rover no more.
 
[Chorus]
3/4:
         E             A                D
And it's no, nay, never, no nay never no more
       A             D         E        A
Will I play the wild rover, no never, no more
 
       E N.C.           A                D
And it's no, nay, never, no nay never no more
       A             D         E        A
Will I play the wild rover, no never, no more
