Standard Tuning, Capo 2nd Fret - This makes chord progression very easy
Am
I have been a rover,
D G Em7/C G
I have walked alone.
Am
Hiked a hundred highways,
D G G/F# Em
never found a home.
Em Cbm
Still in all I'm happy,
C Am
the reason is, you see
G Am C Am
Once in a while along the way,
G D G
Love's been good to me.
Am D
There was a girl in Denver,
Am D G G/F# Em
before the summer storms.
Em Cbm
Oh, her eyes were tender,
C D
oh, her arms were warm.
G G/F# Em G7
And she could smile away the thunder,
C Am
Kiss away the rain,
G Am C Am
And even though she's gone away,
G D G
you won't hear me complain
I have been a rover....
Am D
There was a girl in Portland,
Am D G G/F# Em
before the winter chill.
Em Cbm
We used to go a'courtin'
C D
Along October hill.
G G/F# Em G7
And she could laugh away the dark clouds,
C D
cry away the snow,
G Am C Am
it seems like only yesterday
G D G
as down the road I go.
I have been a rover... (To end)
