The Gypsy Rover

G    D          G        Em    G        C      G  D 
A gypsy rover came over the hill, into the valley shady; 
 
     G              C            G    G/F#  Em 
He whistled and he sang til the green wood rang, 
 
    G           C         G  - C - G - C - G - G - D 
And he won the heart of a la   -   dy. 
 
She left her father's castle gate, she left her own true lover; 
She left her servants and her estate 
To follow her gypsy rover. 
G        C     G             D 
Ah-dee-doo-ah-dee-doo-dah-day, 
 
G        C         G  D7 
Ah-dee-doo-ah-dee-day-dee, 
 
      G             C            G    G/F#   Em 
He whistled and he sang til the green woods rang 
 
     G            C       G -  C - G - C 
And he won the heart of a la  -   dy.  
Her father mounted his fastest steed,  
And searched the valley all over; 
He sought his daughter at great speed 
And the whistling gypsy rover. 
 
At last he came to a mansion fine, down by the river Claydee, 
And there was music and there was wine 
For the gypsy and his lady. 
 
Refrain: 
 
"He is no gypsy, my father," she cried, 
"But Lord of these lands all over, 
And I shall stay til my dying day 
With my whistling gypsy rover."
