[Verse]
 
D / / / 2 / / / 3 / / / 4 / / /
I'm the type of guy who never settles down
 
Where pretty girls are, you'll know that I'm around
  G
I kiss 'em and I love 'em 'cause to me they're all the same
  D
I hug 'em and I squeeze 'em, they don't even know my name
                 A               G
They call me the Wanderer, yeah, Wanderer
       D
I roam round and round and round and round
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
D
There's Flo on my left and there's Mary on my right
D
And Janie is the girl that I'll be with tonight
G
And when she asks me which one I love the best
D
I tear open my shirt and show Rosie on my chest
                  A                G
'Cause I'm the Wanderer, yeah, Wanderer
D
I roam round and round and round and round
 
 
[Bridge]
 
        A
Well, I roam from town to town
 
Live life without a care
 
I'm as happy as a clown
        B7                      E7
With my 2 fists of iron but I'm goin' nowhere
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
D
I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
D
I'm never in one place; I roam from town to town
G
And when I find myself a-fallin' for some girl
D
I hop right into that car of mine and drive around the world
              A                G
'Cause I'm the Wanderer, yeah, Wanderer
D                                    A
I roam round and round and round and round
 
 
[Instrumental] (same pattern as verses)

[Verse 3]
 
D
I'm the type of guy that likes to roam around
D
I'm never in one place; I roam from town to town
G
And when I find myself a-fallin' for some girl
D
I hop right into that car of mine and drive around the world
              A                G
'Cause I'm the Wanderer, yeah, Wanderer
D
I roam round and round and round and round

I think in the last line and Measure of 4-counts in the Bridge, the Chords should be: |B7 |E A7 |D (Verse) With my 2 fists of iron but I'm goin' no-where. The A7 leads back to the D in the Verse.

Also, in the change of Verse to Verse, or Verse to Solo, the last Chord and Measure of 4-counts should be an A7, that leads back again to the D of the next Verse or Solo: |D |A7 |D (Verse & Solo) I roam round and round and round and round.
