Verse 1
G 
The
Judge said, up, lad,
D 
and dry up your tears
You're sentenced to dart
G 
more for 21 years
So dry up your tears, babe,
Em 
Am 
and kiss me goodbye
D 
The best friends must part now,
G 
so must you and I
I hear the train coming,
D 
t 'will be here at night
To take me to
G 
Dartmoor, to serve up my time
I look down the railway,
Em 
Am 
and plainly I see
D 
You're standing there waving
G 
your goodbye to me
Six months have gone by,
D 
babe, I wish I were dead
This cold dreary dungeon and
G 
a stone from my head
It's raining, it's hailing,
Em 
Am 
the moon shows no light
D 
Now will you tell me, babe,
G 
Em 
Am 
D 
G 
why you never write?
Eb 
Ab 
I've counted the days, babe,
Eb 
I've counted the nights
I've counted the footsteps,
Ab 
I've counted the lights
I've counted the raindrops,
Fm 
Bbm 
I've counted the stars
Eb 
I've counted a million of
Ab 
these prison bars
Eb 
I've waited, I've trusted, I long for the day
A lifetime so lonely,
Ab 
now my hair's turning grey
And my thoughts are for you,
Fm 
Bbm 
babe, till I'm out of my mind
Eb 
Ab 
For 21 years is a mighty long time
Fm 
Bbm 
Eb 
For twenty -one years
Ab 
is a mighty long time.
