condemned to sail.[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]D[/ch]        [ch]Dsus4[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]\r\nNow the jury found me  guilty,[/tab]\r\n[tab]                          [ch]G[/ch]\r\nThen says the judge, says

 [ch]A[/ch]\r\nBut the soldiers on our convict ship[/tab]\r\n[tab]  [ch]G[/ch]                [ch]A[/ch]\r\nWere full five hundred strong.[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]D[/ch]        [ch]Dsus4[/ch] [ch]D[/ch]\r\nFor they opened fire and somehow drove[/tab]\r\n[tab]                          [ch]G[/ch]\r\nThat pirate ship away.[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]D[/ch]                    [ch]A[/ch]\r\nBut I'd rather have joined that pirate ship[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]                [ch]D[/ch]  [ch]Dsus4[/ch]\r\nThan gone to Botany Bay.[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]G[/ch]\r\nWith the storms ragin' round
