A-Roving On A Winters Night

D A E A


[Verse 1]

A             E7       A
A-rovin' on a winter's night
               E7   D   A
And a-drinkin' good old wine,
A         D         A             F#m
Thinkin' about that pretty little girl,
F#m   A          E7       A
Thats broke this heart of mine.


[Verse 2]

A                  E7     A
She is just like a butter rose,
                    E7    D  A
That bloomed in the month of June.
A            D       A     F#m
Or like some musical instrument,
F#m    A         E7     A
That's just been lately tuned.

[Verse 3]

A                        E7      A
Perhaps it's a trip to a foreign land,
          E7     D  A
A trip to France or Spain,
A               D           A   F#m
But if I should go ten thousand miles,
F#m   A      E7    A
I'm a-comin' back again.


[Verse 4]

A                                E7          A
And it's who's a-gonna shoe your poor little feet,
                    E7    D           A
Honey who's a-gonna glove your little hands?
A             D     A             F#m
Who's a-gonna kiss your sweet sweetlips,
F#m            A       E7      A
Tell me, who's a-gonna be your man?

[Verse 5]

A                      E7       A
I'll love you till the sea runs dry,
A                 E7   D      A
And the rocks all melt in the sun.
A          D         A    F#m
I love you till the day I die,
F#m        A    E7          A
Though you will never be my own.

[Verse 6]

A             E7       A
A-rovin' on a winter's night
                E7  D   A
And a-drinkin' good old wine,
A         D         A             F#m
Thinkin' about that pretty little girl,
F#m  A          E7       A
That broke this heart of mine.
