It's in the on-line guitar archive. www.olga.net. Do a search for rovers. Here are the words, though they're probably not going to be formatted properly. Go get the file from OLGA. Also, I note that the file doesn't mention: it's by Tom Paxton. Amazing fellow. :-)

WASN'T THAT A PARTY
Time: 2/2
Tenor: E
Bass: C - D

CHORUS:
  
  1                 *        *   *
  Could've been the whiskey
  *                 *    *   *
  Might've been the gin
  *                 *             *          *
  Could've been the three or four six-packs, I don't know
      17          *        *
  But look at the mess I'm in
     *              4        *   *
  My head is like a football
    *                  1     *   *
  I think I'm going to die
  *        5      *     *
  Tell me, me oh, me oh my
  *             1      *    *
  Wasn't that a party
  
  
  1              *           *   *
  Someone took a grapefruit
  *              *     *    *
  Wore it like a hat
  *     *       *        *       *
  I saw someone under my kitchen table
  57            *       *
  Talking to my old tom cat
            *             4      *
  They were talking about hockey
      *               1     *
  The cat was talking back
  *          5          *          *
  Long about then every-thing went black
  *             1      *   *
  Wasn't that a party           (CHORUS)
  
  
      *                  4     *   *
  I'm sure it's just my memory
          *         1     *    *
  Playing tricks on me
        2       *      *      *
  But I think I saw my buddy
          *       *           5     *
  Cutting down my neighbour's tree      (CHORUS)

  WASN'T THAT A PARTY (PAGE TWO)
  
  
  *             4      *   *
  Billy Joe and Tommy
       *                  1    *   *
  Well they went a little far
            2              *          *            *
  They were sitting in the back yard, blowing on a sireen
       *          *      5    *
  >From somebody's police car
  
  
  *                 1     *    *
  So you see, Your Honour
  *             *     *    *
  It was all in fun
      *            *          *       *
  The little bitty track meet down on main street
      *       57         *          *
  Was just to see if the cops could run
            *            4       *    *
  Well they run us in to see you
  *               1      *     *
  In an alcoholic haze
    *        5         *      *
  I sure can use those thirty days
        *              1      *   *
  To re-cover from the party         (CHORUS)
