Verse 1
D
Em
My old mama had a rounder soul
A
He'd hear an old freight train,
D
then he'd have to go
Said he'd been born with
Em
a gypsy's bow
A
That's the reason,
D
I guess, he was cursed
He came into town,
Em
back before the war
A
Didn't even know what it was
D
he was searching for
Em
Carried a tottered bike for his violin
A
Full of lots of songs,
D
places that he'd been
He talked really easy,
Em
he'd just smile and wave
A
To pass along to you,
D
when his fiddle played
Till the people there
Em
began to join that sound
A
And everyone in town
D
was laughing, singing, dancing round
Like the fiddler's tune
Em
was all they'd heard that night
A
As if some dream had said
D

D
Em
His fiddler's eye caught one beauty there
A
She had that rollin',
D
flowin', golden kind
He played for her as if she
Em
danced alone
A
Played his favourite songs,
D
the ones he called his own
Em
He played until she was the last to go
A
Stopped and packed his bag,
D
said he'd take her home
And all the nights have passed,
Em
A
a child was born
All the years have passed,
D
a love to keep them warm
And all their lives they shared
Em
a dream come true
A
D
Just because she danced so well,
his fiddle tune
Em
My old man had a rounder's soul
A
He'd hear an old freight train,
D
then he'd have to go
Said he'd been born with
Em
a gypsy's bone
A
That's the reason, I guess,
D
Em
A
he was cursed to roam
You
My Old Man
