Verse 1
A C Am G Am Oh listen for a moment, lads and hear me tell my tale Am Dm Am How over the sea from England's shore I was compelled to sail Am Dm Am The jury said he's guilty sir and sir that judge said he Am G Am For life Jim Jones I'm sending you across the stormy sea

AmVerse 2
C Am G Am And take my tip before you ship to join the iron gang Am Dm Am Don't be too gay at Botany Bay or else you'll surely hang Am Dm Am Or else you'll surely hang said he and after that Jim Jones Am G Am High upon the gallows tree the crows will pick your bones

AmVerse 3
Am F Am You'll have no chance for mischief there remember what I say Am G Am They'll flog the poaching out of you down there at Botany Bay

Verse 4
Am G Am The wind blew high upon the sea and some pirates came along Am Dm Am But the soldiers on our convict ship they were five hundred strong Am D Am They opened fire and somehow drove that pirate ship away Am G Am I'd rather had joined that buccaneer than come to Botany Bay
Bridge
AmVerse 5
Am G Am Now night and day our irons clang and like poor galley slaves Am Dm Am We toil and strive and when we die we fill dishonoured graves Am D Am But bye and bye I'll break my chains into the bush I'll go Am G Am And join the brave bushrangers there like Donahoo and Co
Verse 6
C Am G Am And some dark night when everything is silent in the town Am Dm Am I'll kill the tyrants one by one and shoot the floggers down Am Dm Am I'll give the law a little shock remember what I say Am G Am They'll yet regret they sent Jim Jones in chains to Botany Bay
