THE IRISH ROVER

_______________

[Verse 1]

G C

In the year of our Lord, eighteen hundred and six

G Em D

We set sail from our sweet cove of Cork

G C G C

We were sailing away with a cargo of bricks

G D G

For the grand city hall in New York

D

She was an elegant craft, rigged fore'd-and-aft

G D

And oh, how the wild winds drove her.

G C G C

She could stand several blasts, she'd twenty-seven masts

G C D G

And we called her the Irish Rover.

[Chorus]

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D

I must sail away;

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D G

I must sail away.

[Verse 2]

G C

We had one million bags of the best Sligo rags,

G Em D

We had two million barrels of stone;

G C G C

We had three million sides of blind horses' hides,

G D G

We had four million barrels of bone.

D

And five million hogs, six million dogs,

G D

Seven million barrels of porter;

G C G C

We had eight million bales of old nanny goat tails,

G C D G

In the hold of the Irish Rover.

[Chorus]

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D

I must sail away;

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D G

I must sail away.

[Verse 3]

G C

We had Barney McGee from the banks of the Lee,

G Em D

There was Hogan from County Tyrone;

G C G C

There was Johnny McGurk who was scared stiff of work,

G D G

And a fella from Westmeath called Malone.

G D

There was Slugger O'Toole who was drunk as a rule,

G D

Fightin' Bill Treacy from Dover;

G C G C

And Nolan from McClare he's as strong as a bear,

G C D G

He's the skipper of the Irish Rover.

[Chorus]

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D

I must sail away;

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D G

I must sail away.

[Verse 4]

G C

We had sailed seven years when the measles broke out,

G Em D

And our ship lost her way in a fog;

G C G C

Then the whole of our crew it was reduced down to two,

G D G

Just me'self and the captain's old dog.

D

Then the ship struck a rock! Lord, what a shock!

G D

It turned the boat right over;

G C G Cm

And she spun nine times around, the poor old dog was drowned -

G D G

Now I'm the last of the Irish Rover.

[Chorus]

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D

I must sail away;

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D G

I must sail away.

[Instrumental]

G C G Em D

G C G C G D G

G D G D G C G

C G D G

[Chorus]

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D

I must sail away;

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D G

I must sail away.

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D

I must sail away;

G C G

Fare thee well, my pretty little girl,

D G*

I must sail away.

FAREWELL TO NOVA SCOTIA

_______________________

[Verse 1]

N.C

The sun was setting in the West

N.C

The birds were singing on every tree

G D

All nature seemed inclined for the rest

Em

Still, there was no rest for me.

[Chorus]

G

Farewell to Nova Scotia, the sea-bound coast,

Em

Let your mountains dark and dreary be

G D

For when I’m far away, on the briny ocean tossed,

Em

Will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me?

[Verse 2]

G

I grieve to leave my native land

Em

I grieve to leave my comrades all

G D

And my parents whom I love so dear

Em

And the bonny, bonny lass that I do adore.

[Chorus]

G

Farewell to Nova Scotia, the sea-bound coast,

Em

Let your mountains dark and dreary be

G D

For when I’m far away, on the briny ocean tossed,

Em

Will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me?

[Verse 3]

G

Drums do beat, wars do alarm

Em

The captain, he calls; I must obey

G D

So farewell, farewell, to my Nova Scotia charms

Em

It’s early in the morning I'm far, far away

[Chorus]

G

Farewell to Nova Scotia, the sea-bound coast,

Em

Let your mountains dark and dreary be

G D

For when I’m far away, on the briny ocean tossed,

Em

Will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me?

[Verse 4]

G

I have three brothers and they are at rest.

Em

Their arms are folded on their breast,

G D

But a poor, simple sailor just like me

Em

Must be tossed and driven on the dark, blue sea.

[Chorus]

G

Farewell to Nova Scotia, the sea-bound coast,

Em

Let your mountains dark and dreary be

G D

For when I’m far away, on the briny ocean tossed,

Em

Will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me?

G D

For when I’m far away, on the briny ocean tossed,

Em

Will you ever heave a sigh or a wish for me?
