Chord Gitar Irish Rovers - The Tinker

 C               G             Am      F

it’s a tinker i Am ,  and a travellin’ man

     C                      G

i follow the wind and the stars

C                    G           Am           F

if i’ve shoes on me feet , and an old crust to eat

         C       G      C

i’m as happy as any by far
C                 G           Am           F

i’m as rich as a king when i lay down to dream

        C                   G

on my pillow of sawdust or hay

C                       G             Am     F

and the friends that i make i would never forsake

             C          G         C

and their kindness one day i’ll repay
chorus :

      F                        C

so thank you for sharing the warmth of your fire

         C                 G

and an ’oul cup of tea or two

C                 C               Am           F

and that warm feather bed , where i lay down my head

      C          G          C

for making me welcome , thank you .

C                   G             Am        F

i’m a jack of all trades , and as sharp as a blade

C                                  G

when it comes to the markets and fairs

          C            G         Am       F

mending ’oul pots and pans or whatever i can

C                 G             C

not a penny i’d give for your cares
chorus
bridge :

         F                        C

now the cold winds of winter can cut like a knife

          F                         C

and the rain chills me deep to the bone

         F                         C

but the warm summer breezes still blow in my mind

          F                     C

and it’s them keeps me carryin’ on
C                        G             Am     F

when the cock crows the dawn , i’ll be already gone

C                                    G

through the meadow that runs by the trees

C                   G             Am           F

i think nothing of time , for the world is all mine

C                  G         C

i can come and can go as i please

repeat chorus twice
