Rambles of Spring:

Verse 1:
     G+G
There's a piercing wintry breeze
    C majorC         G+G
Blowing through the budding trees
                  D MajorD
And I button up my coat to keep me warm
    G+G
But the days are on the mend
    C majorC      G+G
And I'm on the road again
            D MajorD        G+G
With my fiddle snuggled close beneath my arm

 Chorus :
    G+G
I've a fine, felt hat
   C majorC       D MajorD
And a strong pair of brogues
    G+G      D MajorD
I have rosin in my pocket for my bow
   G+G
O my fiddle strings are new
     C majorC         D MajorD
And I've learned a tune or two
    G+G        D MajorD        G+G
So, I'm well prepared to ramble and must go

Verse 2:

    G+G
I'm as happy as a king
    C majorC         G+G
When I catch a breath of spring
                     D MajorD
And the grass is turning green as winter ends
    G+G
And the geese are on the wing
    C majorC         G+G
And the thrushes start to sing
                    D MajorD
And I'm headed down the road to see my friends

 Chorus :
    G+G
I've a fine, felt hat
   C majorC       D MajorD
And a strong pair of brogues
    G+G      D MajorD
I have rosin in my pocket for my bow
   G+G
O my fiddle strings are new
     C majorC         D MajorD
And I've learned a tune or two
    G+G        D MajorD        G+G
So, I'm well prepared to ramble and must go

Verse 3:

    G+G
I have friends in every town
   C majorC       G+G
As I ramble up and down
                  D MajorD
Making music at the markets and the fairs
      G+G
Through the donkeys and the creels
    C majorC       G+G
And the farmers making deals
                   D MajorD
And the yellow headed tinkers selling wares

 Chorus :
    G+G
I've a fine, felt hat
   C majorC       D MajorD
And a strong pair of brogues
    G+G      D MajorD
I have rosin in my pocket for my bow
   G+G
O my fiddle strings are new
     C majorC         D MajorD
And I've learned a tune or two
    G+G        D MajorD        G+G
So, I'm well prepared to ramble and must go

Verse 4:

     G+G
Here's a health to one and all
    C majorC       G+G
To the big and to the small
                    D MajorD
To the rich and poor alike and foe and friends
     G+G
And when I return again
    C majorC          G+G
May our foes have turned to friends
                    D MajorD
And may peace and joy be with you until then

 Chorus :
    G+G
I've a fine, felt hat
   C majorC       D MajorD
And a strong pair of brogues
    G+G      D MajorD
I have rosin in my pocket for my bow
   G+G
O my fiddle strings are new
     C majorC         D MajorD
And I've learned a tune or two
    G+G        D MajorD        G+G
So, I'm well prepared to ramble and must go
