Intro: [D] [Bm] [A] [D]
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
My old man had a rounder's soul
He'd hear an old freight train
[D]
Then he'd have to go
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
Said he'd been blessed with a gypsy bone
That's the reason they guessed
[D]
He'd been cursed to roam
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
Came into town back before the war
Didn't even know what it was
[D]
He was looking for
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
Carried a tattered bag for his violin
It was full of lots of songs
[D]
Of places that he'd been
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
He talked real eeaassy, had a smiling way
To pass along to you
[D]
When his fiddle played
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
Making people drop their cares and woes
To hum out loud those tunes
[D]
That his fiddle howled
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
Till the people there began to join that sound
And everyone in town was laughing
[D]
Singing, dancing round
[F#m]
Like the fiddler's tune
[Bm] [A]
Was all they heard that night
As if some dream said
[D]
"All the world is right"
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
His fiddler's eye caught one beauty there
She had that rollin', flowin'
[D]
Golden kind of hair
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
He played for her as if she danced alone
Played his favorite songs
[D]
Ones he called his own
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
He played until she was the last to go
Stopped and packed his case
[D]
And said he'd take her home
[F#m] [Bm]
[A] [D]
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
All the nights that passed a child was born
All the years that passed
[D]
That love would keep them warm
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
All their lives they'd share a dream come true
All because she danced
[D]
While his fiddle tuned
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
My old man had a rounder's soul
He'd hear an old freight train
[D]
Then he'd have to go
[F#m] [Bm] [A]
All that I recall said when I was so young
There's no one else could really
[D]
Sing those songs he sung
