A
Bushmen one morning rode up to an inn
Bm
Em
Bm
One of them called for

drinks with a grin
G
He'd only returned from a trip to the
North
D
And eager to greet them,
A
Asus4
the landlord came forth
A
G
He absently poured out a
glass of three -star
D
And set down the drink with
A
Asus4
A
the rest on the bar
D
There that is for
A
Harry, he said, and it's queer
Bm
It's the very same glass
F#m
He drank from last year
G
His name's on the glass
You can read it like print
D
He scratched it himself
A
with an old piece of flint
G
I remember his drink
It was always three -star
D
And sit down to drink with
A
D
the rest on the bus
He looked at the horses
A
and counted but three
Bm
You were always together, whereas
F#m
Harry cried he
G
Sadly they looked with
the glasses they said
D

The one gazing out over ridges afar
D
Said we owe him a drink,

G
leave the glass on the bar
D
He thought of the faraway
A
grave on the plain
Bm
He thought of the comrade,
F#m
did not come again
G
They lifted their glasses
and sadly they said,
D
We drink to the name of
A
our old man's dead.
G
And the sunlight streamed in,
A light like a star,
D
Seemed to glow in the depth
A
of the glass on the bar.
D
And still in that shanty,
A
a tumbler is seen
Bm
Stands by the clock,
F#m
ever polished and clean
G
And often the strangers read as they pass
D
The name of the bushman en
A
graved on the glass
G
Though on that shelf,
though a dozen there are
D
That glass never stands with the rest
D
on the bar
Glass on the bar
