This isn't in the same key as Andy's version on youtube, but I like these chords for it. (The chords are the same for all three verses, but I'll leave them all here anyway) (chorus) C Oh, there's sober men in plenty, And drunkards barely twenty F C Dm Em F There are men of over ninety, That have never yet kissed a girl C But give me a ramblin' rover, Fr'ae Orkney down to Dover F C F G7 C G7- We will roam the country over, And together we'll face the world C There's many that feign enjoyment From merciless employment F C Their ambition was this deployment Dm Em F From the minute they left the school C And they save and scrape and ponder While the rest go out and squander F C See the world and rove and wander F G7 F And they're happier as a rule C I have roamed through all the nations In delight of all creations, F C And enjoyed a wee sensation Dm Em F Where the company did prove kind C And when partin' was no pleasure Ive drunk another measure F C To the good friends that we treasure F G7 F For they always are in our mind. C If you're bent with ar-thir-itis, Your bowels have got colitis F C You've galloping bollockitis Dm Em F And you're thinking it's time you died C If you've been a man of action Though you're lying there in traction F C You may gain some satisfaction F G7 F Thinking, "Jesus, at least I tried!"
