One of the greatest traditional Irish folk songs with lyrics and chords
The Gypsy Rover
D7 G D7
A Gypsy rover came over the hill,
G D7 G D7
And down through the valley so shady.
G D7 Bm Em
He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang
G D7 G D7 G
And he won the heart of a la - dy.
CHORUS: _________
G D7 G D7 G D7 G D7
A dee do a dee do da day A dee doo a dee day dee
G D7 Bm Em
He whistled and he sang 'til the green woods rang
G D7 G D7 G
And he won the heart of a la - dy.
