Tuning: E A D G B E

[Intro] G [Verse]

The fire is out, the ^Cmoon is ^Gdown ^Em The parting glass is dry and ^Ddone ^G And I must go and ^Cleave this ^Gtown ^Em Before the rising ^Dof the ^Gsun ^Em

[Verse]

Long's the road and ^Bmmany's the mile Be^Cfore I ^Grest my ^Dsoul again ^G With girls who weep and ^Cgirls who ^Gsmile ^Em At all the words and ^Dways of ^Gmen ^C ^D

[Instrumental] G C Em G C Em D G Em Bm C G D G C G Em D G C D G [Verse]

But some there are who ^Cmay not ^Ghide ^Em But wander 'til their journey's ^Dend ^G Or take a girl to ^Cbe a ^Gbride ^Em Or keep a man to ^Dbe a ^Gfriend ^Em

[Verse]

When I'm done with ^Bmwandering I will ^Csit be^Gside the ^Droad and weep ^G For all the songs I ^Cdid not ^Gsing ^Em And promises I ^Ddid not ^Gkeep ^C ^D ^G

[Instrumental] G C G Em D G C G Em D G Em [Verse]

When I'm done with ^Bmwandering I will ^Csit be^Gside the ^Droad and weep ^G For all the songs I ^Ccould not ^Gsing ^Em And promises I ^Ddid not ^Gkeep ^C ^D ^G
