 Come all ye rolling minstrels, and together we will try.
    D                C      D          Am       G       D

  Those that dance, will start to dance, and those who don't, will stay.
    D                C     D             Am       G      D

     D                C        D               Am     G        D    
 Our fiddler, he just loves to play,and that's why he plays so good.
     D      C       D       Am          G     D    
 And now he plays a violin, made out of solid wood.
         Am                                             D   
 So come all ye rolling minstrels, and together we will try.

 Possessor of the magic touch, and no magician he.
      D                 C     D        Am       G        D   
 Will play for you some magic notes instead, as you will see.
         Am                                             D

 D                 C      D      Am     G           D    
  Sound of beating on the drum, song behind, you'll hear.
     D             C  D          Am           G      D   
 And to the rhythm of guitar, we hope you'll lend an ear.
         Am                                             D

 Well, the man who plays the bass, does make, those low notes that you hear.
         D                    C      D        Am      G       D     
 And the high notes come from you and me, for we will sing so clear.
         Am                                             D   
 So come all ye rolling minstrels, and together we will try.
