Scalliwag by Gaelic Storm
Dm C 6x
[Dm]Come away come away with the traveling show
[C]come away with the raggle taggle gypsy oh!
[Dm]We'll raggle-taggle here we'll raggle-taggle there,
[C]raggle up and down taggle everywhere.
[Dm]From the North from the South from the East from the West,
[C]well the sky is our roof and the road is our rest.
[Dm]No one to say 'yes', no one to say 'no'.
[C]Run free with the raggle-taggle gypsy oh!
[Dm] [C] [Dm] [C]
[Dm]They locked you in a tower and threw away the key
[C]but this tower's no match for a wag like me
[Dm]I'll be sneaking through your gate I'll be peaking round the corner
[C]well I've come to take your daughter, don't you say I didn't warn ya.
[Dm]I'll be bringing you a fiddle I'll be singing you a song
[C]we'll fiddle, sing, sing, fiddle all day long.
[Dm]In the halls and the walls they will her us sing and say
[C]"whack fol the diddle diddle die diddle day"
Chorus:
[F]Come on and wade, way [Bb]out into the water with me[F], we're drowning on d[C]ry land.
[F]Come on and wade way [Bb]out into the water with me[C]...[C#] Jump in and take my h[Dm]and.
[Dm]I'll be rapping at your window I'll be knocking at your door
[C]I'll be tip tippy tapping, tippy tapping on the floor
[Dm]With me fine silk britches and a feather in me hat
[C]If I run into your father then I'll stop and have a chat!

[Dm]Cutting through your garden on the way to rendezvous
[C]and the owls in the trees are hooting "who are you?"
[Dm]And the mice and the cats and the spiders and the bats
[C]we're dancing 'round the kitchen like a pack of acrobats
[Dm]Run away, Run away with the traveling show
[C]Run away with the rambling gypsy oh!
[Dm]Run away, Run away with the traveling show
[C]Run away with the rambling gypsy oh!
Chorus:
[F]Come on and wade, way [Bb]out into the water with me[F], we're drowning on d[C]ry land.

Violin solo
Dm C Dm C Dm C Dm C Dm C Bb C Dm C Bb C
play like a B chord on the 3rd fret
[Dm]A roving and a running and a riding on the sea
[C]and everywhere we go as happy as can be
[Dm]All the mountains and the valleys and the rivers and the streams,
[C]all the lovely places that you've seen in your dreams
[Dm]I'll give you the heavens, the stars in the sky,
[C]every wooded creature, every bird and butterfly
[Bb]I've never had a fortune not a penny will you find
C
you're my one and only treasure, you can leave all the rest behind.
[F]Come on and wade, way [Bb]out into the water with me[F], we're drowning on d[C]ry land.
[F]Come on and wade way [Bb]out into the water with me[C]... (repeat until end)
