[Verse 1]
Gb
Listen for a moment, lads,
Abm Ebm
and hear me tell my tale
B Gb
How o'er the sea from England shore,
Abm Ebm
I was condemned to sail
B Gb Abm
The jury found me guilty, sir, and said the judge,
Ebm
said he
Abm Ebm
"For life, Jim Jones, I sentence you,
Abm Ebm
across the stormy sea"
[Verse 2]
Gb Abm Ebm
"Take my tip before you ship to join the iron gang
B Gb Abm
Don't be too gay in Botany Bay or else you'll
Ebm
surely hang;
B Gb Abm
Or else you'll surely hang," says he, "And after that,
Ebm
Jim Jones
Abm Ebm
High up upon the gallows tree,
Abm Ebm
the crows will pick your bones."
[Verse 3]
Gb
"You'll have no chance of mischief there,
Abm Ebm
remember what I say
B Gb Abm
They'll flog the poachin' out of you out there in Botany
Ebm
Bay."
B Gb
Waves were high upon the seas,
Abm Ebm
the wind approached in gales
Abm Ebm Abm Ebm
I'd rather drowned in misery than come to New South Wales
[Verse 4]
Gb Abm
The waves were high upon the seas when the pirates came
Ebm
along
B Gb Abm
But the soldiers on our convict ship were full five hundred
Ebm
strong
B Gb Abm Ebm
They opened fire and somehow drove that pirate ship away
Abm Ebm Abm Ebm
I'd rather join that pirate ship than gone to Botany Bay
[Verse 5]
Gb
And one dark night,
Abm Ebm
when everything is quiet in the town
B Gb
I'll kill you bastards one and all,
Abm Ebm
I'll gun the floggers down
B Gb
Give them all a little shot,
Abm Ebm
remember what I say
Abm Ebm Abm
They'll yet regret they sent Jim Jones in chains to Botany
Ebm
Bay
[Verse 6]
Gb Abm
Now day and night the irons clang and like poor galley
Ebm
slaves
B Gb Abm Ebm
Toil and toil and when we die must fill dishonored graves
B Gb Abm
By and by, I'll break my chains into the bush,
Ebm
I'll go...
Abm
And you'll be dead...
Ebm
Behind me, John...
Abm Ebm
When I get to Mexico...
