Intro 1
(A minor)
Verse 1
I'm Old (A minor) Tom Moore
from (G major) the bummer's shore
In the good (A minor) old golden (G major) days (A minor)
They call me a bum and a gin- (G major) soaked hoo
But what (A minor) care I for (G major) praise (A minor)
I've (C major) wandered around from
town (A minor) to town
They call (C major) me the Ramblin' Sign (A minor)
And (F major) all the people say,
"There (C major) goes Tom Moore
In the days of forty- nine." (A minor)
My comrades they all (G major) loved me well
A (A minor) jolly saucy (G major) crew (A minor)
A few hard cases I will (G major) recall
Though they (A minor) were all
(G major) brave and true (A minor)
Whatever (C major) the pinch they
nev (A minor) er would flinch
They (C major) never would fret or whine (A minor)
And like good (F major) old bricks they (C major) took the kicks
In the days of forty- (A minor) nine
In the (F major) days of old (C major)
When we dug up the gold
How (F major) oft'times I (C major) repine
In the (F major) days of old
(C major) When we dug up the gold
In the days (A minor) of forty- nine
There was Big Bad Bob from Buf (G major) falo
Him (A minor) I can (G major) 't forget
(A minor) He would roar all day and
he would (G major) roar all night
And I guess (A minor) he's a- (G major) roarin' yet (A minor)
One (C major) day he fell in a prospect (A minor) hole
In a roarin' (C major) bad design (A minor)
And (F major) in that hole he (C major) roared out his soul
In the days of forty- nine (A minor)
In the (F major) days of old
(C major) When we dug up the gold
How (F major) oft'times I (C major) repine
In the (F major) days of old (C major)
When we dug up the gold
In the days (A minor) of forty- nine (G major) (A minor) (G major)
Now (A minor) (G major) (C major) (A minor) (C major) (A minor)
(F major) (C major) (A minor)
(G major) (A minor) Poker Bill was (G major) one of the boys
He was (A minor) always in a game
Whether he won or (G major) whether he lost
To (A minor) him it was all (G major) the same (A minor)
He would (C major) ante up and (A minor) draw his cards
(C major) And go a hundred dollars (A minor) blind
In a (F major) game with death Bill (C major) lost his breath
In the days of forty- (A minor) nine
There was New York Jake,
the butcher's (G major) boy
He was (A minor) always (G major) gettin' tight (A minor)
And every time that he (G major) got full
He was coilin' (A minor) (G major) for a fight (A minor)
And (G major) old Jake (C major) rampaged again (A minor) st the knife
In the (C major) hands of old Bob Sykes (A minor)
And (F major) over Jake they held a wake (C major)
In the days of forty- nine (A minor)
In the (F major) days of old
(C major) When we dug up the gold
How (F major) oft'times I repine
(C major) In the (F major) days of old
When we dug (C major) up the gold
In the (A minor) days of forty- (G major) nine (A minor) (A minor)
My comrades now they've (G major) all gone
There's (A minor) none that's left (G major) to boast (A minor)
And I'm left alone in my (G major) misery
Like the son (A minor) of a wan (G major) derin' (A minor) ghost
(C major) I've wandered around from
(A minor) town to town
They call (C major) me the Ramblin' (A minor) Sign
And (F major) all the people say,
"There (C major) goes Tom Moore
In the days of forty- (A minor) nine."
In the (F major) days of old
(C major) When we dug up the gold
How (F major) oft'times I (C major) repine
In the (F major) days of old (C major) (A minor)
(G major) (A minor) (G major) (F major)
When (C major) we dug up the gold (F major) (C major) (G major) (F major) (C major)
In the days (A minor) (G major) of forty- nine (A minor)
