[Bb] [Cm] [Bb] [C] Oh come listen for a moment lads and hear me tell my tale
[Cm] I was this from England [C] I was condemned to sail
jury [Cm] found me guilty and says the judge says he owe for life
Jones I'm sending you across the raging sea
my tip before you ship to join the Iron Gang
get too [Cm] gay on Botany [Fm] Bay or else [C] you'll surely hang
Or else [Cm] you'll hang he says says he and after that
[Eb] high upon the gallows tree [Bbm] the crows [C] will pick your bone
[Cm] I was this from England [C] I was condemned to sail
jury [Cm] found me guilty and says the judge says he owe for life
Jones I'm sending you across the raging sea
my tip before you ship to join the Iron Gang
get too [Cm] gay on Botany [Fm] Bay or else [C] you'll surely hang
Or else [Cm] you'll hang he says says he and after that
[Eb] high upon the gallows tree [Bbm] the crows [C] will pick your bone
