[Verse 1]
G Am Em
Oh listen for a moment lads and hear me tell my tale
C G Am Em
How o'er the sea from England's shore I was condemned to sail
C G Am Em
The jury found me guilty sir and then the judge said he
Am Em Am Em
For life Jim Jones I sentence you across the stormy sea
[Verse 2]
G Am Em
take my tip before you ship to join the iron gang
C G Am Em
Don't be too gay at Botany Bay or else you'll surely hang
C G Am Em
Or else you'll surely hang says he and after that Jim Jones
Am Em Am Em
high upon the gallows tree the crows will pick your bones
[Verse 3]
G Am Em
You'll have no chance for mischief there remember what I say
C G Am Em
They'll flog the poaching out of you out there at Botany Bay
C G Am Em
The waves were high upon the sea the wind approaching gales
Am Em Am Em
I'd rather drowned in misery than come to New South Wales
[Verse 4]
G Am Em
The winds were high upon the sea when the pirates came along
C G Am Em
But the soldiers on our convict ship were full five hundred strong
C G Am Em
They opened fire and somehow drove that pirate ship away
Am Em Am Em
I'd rather joined that pirate ship than gone to Botany Bay
[Verse 5]
G Am Em
For night and day the irons clang and like poor galley slaves
C G Am Em
We toil and toil and when we die must fill dishonored graves
C G Am Em
But bye and bye I'll break my chains into the bush I'll go
Am Em Am Em
And join the bold bushrangers there Jack Donahoo and Co
[Verse 6]
G Am Em
And some dark night when everything is silent in this town
C G Am Em
I'll kill the tyrants one by one and shoot the floggers down
C G Am Em
I'll give the law a little shock remember what I say
Am Em Am Em
They'll yet regret they sent Jim Jones in chains to Botany Bay
[alternative verses 5 and 6]
G Am Em
And one dark night when everything is quiet in the town,
C G Am Em
I'll kill you bastards one and all, I'll gun the floggers down.
C G Am Em
I'll give them all a little shock, remember what I say
Am Em Am Em
They'll yet regret they sent Jim Jones in chains to Botany Bay.
G Am Em
Now day and night in irons clad we like poor galley slaves
C G Am Em
Toil and toil and when we die must fill dishonored graves
C G Am Em
By and by I'll break m' chains and to the bush I'll go
Am Em Am Em
And you'll be dead behind me, John, when I get to Mexico.
