Well, they took my television

I wish I was    a red   rosey bush
D      E7           A    Bm7  C#m7 Bm7
By the banks of the sea
     D     E7      A         Bm7
 And every time my true love passed
      C#m7   Bm7       A   Bm7  C#m7  Bm7
She'd take a rose from me

I wish I had a little white box *)
I put her in
and I'd take her out, and kiss her, then
I'd put her back again

I wish I was in some dark hollow
Where the sun don't ever shine

      G                      Em
Well, I'm just-a one of them ramblin' boys,
C                  D      G
Ramblin' round and makin' noise
G                 Em
Sometimes lonely, sometimes blue,
C              D           G
Noone knows it better than you

Ramlin' round ramblin' twirl,
Ramblin' down through the world
Ramlin' down ramblin' twirl,
Ramblin' down through the world

[long harp solo over sustained D/f# chord, then some rounds of the verse]

Em

           Em
She went upstairs to make her bed.
            C                  Em
And not one word to her mother said.

Her mother she went upstairs too,
                    C                          Em
Saying "Daughter oh daughter, what's troubling you?"

Oh mother oh mother I cannot tell.
It's that railroad boy that looks so well.
He's courted me my life away.
And now at home I long to stay.

There is a place in yonder town
where my love goes and he sits there down.
And he takes a strange girl on his knee,
And he tells to her what he won't tell me.
