[Intro]
---------------------
Dm 

[Verse 1]
---------------------
F                              Gm              Dm 
Listen for a moment, lads, and hear me tell my tale
    A#                F                Gm               Dm 
How o'er the sea from England shore, I was condemned to sail
    A#            F                Gm                   Dm 
The jury found me guilty, sir, and said the judge, said he 
     Gm                Dm                 Gm              Dm 
"For life, Jim Jones, I   sentence you, across the stormy sea"

[Verse 2]
---------------------
F                               Gm            Dm 
"Take my tip before you ship to join the iron gang
      A#            F             Gm                Dm 
Don't be too gay in Botany Bay or else you'll surely   hang;
   A#                 F                    Gm              Dm 
Or else you'll surely hang," says he, "And after that, Jim Jones
     Gm          Dm                Gm                   Dm 
High up upon the gallows tree, the crows will pick your bones."

[Verse 3]
---------------------
F                                           Gm            Dm 
"You'll have no chance of mischief there, remember what I say
        A#                F              Gm              Dm 
They'll flog the poachin' out of you out there in Botany Bay."
A#               F                 Gm                 Dm 
Waves were high upon the seas, the wind approached in gales
    Gm                Dm          Gm                Dm 
I'd rather drowned in misery than come to New South Wales

[Verse 4]
---------------------
    F                                      Gm            Dm 
The waves were high upon the seas when the pirates came along
        A#              F                 Gm                Dm 
But the soldiers on our convict ship were full five hundred strong
     A#              F                  Gm           Dm 
They opened fire and somehow drove that pirate ship away
    Gm               Dm               Gm             Dm 
I'd rather join that pirate ship than gone to Botany Bay

[Verse 5]
---------------------
    F                                  Gm           Dm 
And one dark night, when everything is quiet in the town
     A#                F                 Gm               Dm 
I'll kill you bastards one and all, I'll gun the floggers down
A#              F              Gm            Dm 
Give them all a little shot, remember what I say
        Gm              Dm                Gm               Dm 
They'll yet regret they sent Jim Jones in chains to Botany Bay

[Verse 6]
---------------------
    F                                 Gm               Dm 
Now day and night the irons clang and like poor galley slaves
A#                F                Gm              Dm 
Toil and toil and when we die must fill dishonored graves
A#              F                 Gm                Dm 
By and by, I'll break my chains into the bush, I'll go...
    Gm 
And you'll be dead...
  Dm 
Behind me, John...
       Gm         Dm 
When I get to Mexico...
