verse 1 

Cm7         Bm7 
  Never sing for my supper 
Cm7                Bm7 
  I never helped my neighbour 
Cm7       Bm7 
  Never do what is proper 
Cm7                   Bm7 
  For my fair share of labour 

Bbm7     Ebm7sus2 
   I'm a poor boy 
Bbm7        Ebm7sus2 
  And I'm a rover 
Bbm7      Ebm7sus2 
  Count your coins and 
Bbm7         Ebm7sus2 Cm7 
  Throw them over my  shoulder 
     Bm7 
I may grow older 


Pre-Chorus 

C7 
  Nobody knows 
B7 
  How cold it grows 
Bb7 
  And nobody sees 
C 
  How shaky my knees 
C7 
  Nobody cares  
B7 
  How steep my stairs 
Bb7 
  And nobody smiles 
C   
  If I cross their stiles
