[G] [Gm] [G] On a long, lonesome journey [C] I'm going [D] Oh darling, please don't [G] you cry
Go and shackle the chains they [C] will take me To [D] a prison to stay till [G] I die
And [C] at night through [Cm] the bars I [G] will gaze at the stars
[C] [A] And long for your kisses [D] in vain [F#] A piece [G] of stone I will use as [C] my pillow
While [D] I'm sleeping in [G] shackles and chains
Put

your arm through these bars once [C] my darling Let me [D] kiss those sweet lips I [G] love best
And heartache you're my [C] consolation And [D] sorrow my haven of [G] rest
And at [C] night through [Cm] the bars I [G] will gaze at the [C] [G] stars

And long for your [D] kisses in vain A piece [G] of stone I will use [C] as my pillow
While [D] I'm sleeping in shackles [G] and chains
