Verse 1
(G major) They turned him out
of Beechworth (C major) Jail in 1871 (G major)
He put (D major) in three long years
behind those (G major) walls
For the stealing of a horse
he swore (C major) he'd never done (G major)
But now (D major) he sees the sun
turns his back upon it all
Walked (C major) softly cried the magistrate
who (G major) counted up the score
Walked (C major) softly cried the turnkey
as he clanged (G major) the iron door
Walked (C major) softly cried his comrades
cringing on (G major) that (D major) prison floor (G major)
The sun (Dsus4) is on the (D major) meadow
an (Dsus4) (D major) d the wind is
(Dsus4) in the (D major) gum trees (Dsus4)
(D major) And the Beechworth Jail
is many miles be (G major) hind here
In prison, ship and shackles,
his (C major) father reached this (G major) land
He stole (D major) one pig
and for that crime he paid (G major)
In a cold, dark prison cell,
he died (C major) a broken man (G major)
And left (D major) his wife to curse the crown
while his children dug his grave
Speak softly, (C major) cried the jailer,
laying slop (G major) on his plate
Speak (C major) softly, cried the turnkey
as he (G major) opened up the gate
Speak (C major) softly, cried his mother,
it's been (G major) oh, so long (D major) to (G major) wait
The sun (Dsus4) is on the (D major) meadow,
(Dsus4) and (D major) the wind is
(Dsus4) in the gum trees
An (D major) d the Beechworth jail
is many miles be (G major) hind him
They told him it was over,
and his (C major) song had been well sun (G major) g
They (D major) told him while Australia
had to (G major) change
And he'd better mind his temper,
and he'd (C major) better watch his (G major) tongue
For the (D major) next time that he stepped inside
those gates he'd surely hang
Speak (C major) boldly, cried his father,
from the grave (G major) in which he lay
Speak (C major) boldly, cried his country,
there's a (G major) trust that's been betrayed
Speak (C major) boldly, cried his conscience,
there's a (G major) debt, and it (D major) must be (G major) paid
The sun (Dsus4) is on the meadow, (D major)
(Dsus4) an d (D major) the (Dsus4) wind is
in the gum tree (D major) (Dsus4)
(D major) And the beach worth jail
is many miles be (G major) hind me
The sun (Dsus4) is on the (D major) meadow
And (Dsus4) (D major) the (Dsus4) wind is
in the gum tree (D major) (Dsus4)
An (D major) d the Beechworth Jail
is many miles be (G major) hind here
