Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
I've been a wild rover
For many's a year,
I've spent all my money
on Bacchian beer
But now I'm returning
with gold in great store
I never shall play the wild rover no more
And it's now or never, never no more
I never will play the wild rover no more
I went to an alehouse I used to frequent
And told the landlady my money was spent
I asked her for credit,
she answered me nay
I've too many customers
like you every day
And it's now or never, never no more
I never will play the Wild Rover no more
Put my hand in my pocket,
pulled out Shilling's
The landlady's eyes
opened wide with delight
Of beer and of whisky,
and wine of the best
And those words that I mentioned
were only in jest
For it's now or never, never no more
G 
D 
I never will play the Wild Rover no
Going home to New Plymouth,
And ask them to pardon their prodigal son
And if they will do so as often before
I never shall play the wild rover no more
And it's now or never, never no more
I never will play the Wild Rover no more
And it's now or never, never no more
I never will play the Wild Rover no more you
