Dsus4

Verse 1
Em 
Dsus4 
This tune was
D 
Em 
composed by Spencer the Roamer
Dsus4 
D 
Em 
As valiant  a man has ever left home
G 
D 
And he had been much reduced,
Em 
which caused great confusion
Dsus4 
D 
Em 
And that     was the reason he started
Dsus4 
D 
Em 
Dsus4 
D 
Em 
to roam
Dsus4 
D 
In Yorkshire, near Rotherham,
Em 
he had been on the run
Dsus4 
Weary of traveling,
D 
Em 
he sat down to rest
G 
D 
By the foot of a mountain,
Em 
as a clear -flowed fountain
Dsus4 
D 
With bread    and cold wa ter,
Em 
he himself did refresh
Dsus4 
D 
Em 
Dsus4 
With the night    fast approaching,
D 
Em 
to the woods he resorted
Dsus4 
D 
Dsus4 
With wood     vying and diving,
Em 
his bed far to make
G 
D 
But he dreamt about shying,
Em 
lamenting and crying
Dsus4 
D 
Go home     to your family
Em 
Dsus4 
and rambling for sin
D 
Em 
Dsus4 
D 
Em 
Dsus4 
It was the 5th      day of November,
Em 
I've reason to remember
Dsus4 
D 
When first he arrived home
Em 
to his family and friends
G 
D 
And they did stand so astounded,
Em 
surprised and unfounded
Dsus4 
To see such a stranger
D 
Em 
Dsus4 
once more in their sight
D 
Em 
Dsus4 
D 
Em 
Dsus4 
D 
His children come around him
Em 
with their prickly, prattling stories
Dsus4 
With their prickly, prattling stories
D 
Em 
to drive care away
G 
D 
And he's as happy as those,
Em 
as the thousands of riches
Dsus4 
D 
Contempted  he remained
Em 
D 
and not rambled away
Em 
Dsus4 
D
