Come all ye rolling minstrels,
AGD
And to-gether we will try.
DAD
To rouse the spirit of the earth,
AGD
And move the rolling sky.
(verse 2)

Those that dance, will start to dance,
AGD
And those who don't, will stay.

In time to list our merry tune,
AGD
That we play for you to-day.

So come all ye rolling minstrels,

To rouse the spirit of the earth.
AGD
And move the rolling sky.

Our fiddler, he just loves to play,
AGD
And that's why he plays so good.
DAD
And now he plays a vio-lin,
AGD
Made out of solid wood.

So come all ye rolling minstrels,
D
And together we will try.

To rouse the spirit of the earth.
AGD
And move the rolling sky.
(interlude) D

Pos-sessor of the magic touch,
AGD
And no ma-gician he.

Will play for you some magic notes,
AGD
In-stead, as you will see.

So come all ye rolling minstrels,

DAD
Sound of beating on the drum,
AGD
Song be-hind, you'll hear.

And to the rhythm of gui-tar,

We hope you'll lend an ear.

Well, the man who plays the bass, does make,
AGD
Those low notes that you hear.

And the high notes come from you and me,
AGD
For we will sing so clear.
(chorus 5)
Am
So come all ye rolling minstrels,
D
And together we will try.

To rouse the spirit of the earth.
AGD
And move the rolling sky.
