***CACHE IS NOT AT THE LISTED COORDINATES!**

Wild Rover No More
This is a song that Jacky sang many times, both with friends and as a solo act... but then... she sang so many songs. That’s not why it’s the name of the end of her epic story. After covering most of the globe, it was time to settle down… one way or another…
There are several words in this centuries-old tune that only appear once. They are shuffled a bit in the list below. Put them back in the order in which they appear, to find your final coordinates. The tenth is 0.
Wild Rover No More
I've been a wild rover for many's the year
I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer
But now I'm returning with gold in great store
And I never will play the wild rover no more
And it's No, Nay, never,
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover,
No never no more
I went into an alehouse I used to frequent
And I told the landlady me money was spent
I asked her for credit, she answered me nay
Such custom as yours I can get any day
And it's No, Nay, never,
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover,
No never no more
I took up from my pocket, ten sovereigns bright
And the landlady's eyes opened wide with delight
She says "I have whiskeys and wines of the best
And the words that you told me were only in jest"
And it's No, Nay, never,
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover,
No never no more
I'll go home to my parents, confess what I've done
And I'll ask them to pardon their prodigal son
And, when they've caressed me as oft times before
I never will play the wild rover no more
And it's No, Nay, never,
No, nay never no more
Will I play the wild rover,
No never no more
