Verse 1
(D major) Oh, what's the matter with you, love?
(A major) An (D major) d where's your dash
(E minor) ing Jimmy? (A major) (D major)
(Asus4) Well, (A major) (D major) the soldier boys,
they've picked (A major) him up
And (D major) they've (E minor) pressed him far, (A major) far from (D major) me
Last payday, (B minor) we (E minor) went to town
(A major) And (B minor) dem red (E minor) -coated fellow
(A major) They've (D major) (Asus4) (A major) enticed (D major) him in
and they've (A major) (D major) made him drunk (A major)
Now he's (E minor) better gone (A major) to the (G major) gal (D major) lows
(G major) He's (E minor) better (D major) gone to (A major) the (B minor) gallows (G major)
(A major) (G major) (E minor) (Asus4) (D major) (Asus4) (A major)
(D major) The very sight of (A major) his cockade,
it (D major) set us all (E minor) a -cry (A major) (D major) in' (Asus4)
(D major) And me, I nearly fainted twice,
well, I (E minor) thought that (A major) I was dy (D major) in'
Me father, (B minor) he would have (E minor) paid the smart
(A major) And (B minor) he ran (E minor) for the golden guinea (A major) (D major)
(A major) But the ser (D major) geant swore
he'd kissed the book
So (A major) now (E minor) they've (A major) got young Jimmy
(G major) Oh, (D major) (G major) (E minor) now they've (D major) (A major) got young (B minor) Jimmy
(A major) (G major) (E minor) (Asus4) (D major) (Asus4) (A major)
(D major) When Jimmy talks about the wars
It's (Asus4) (A major) (D major) worse than death (E minor)
to hear him (A major) (D major) (Asus4)
I (D major) must go out and hide (A major) me fears,
(D major) Because (E minor) I (A major) cannot bear (D major) him.
A bri (B minor) gadier or a (E minor) grenadier,
(A major) He says (B minor) (E minor) they're (B minor)
(E minor) sure to make (A major) him. (D major) (A major)
(D major) But as he jibes and cracks his jokes
Well, (A major) he (E minor) begs me not (A major) forsake (G major) him (D major)
(G major) He (E minor) begs me (D major) not (A major) for (B minor) sake
him (G major) (A major) (G major) (E minor) (Asus4)
(D major) An (A major) d (D major) as I walked through the
stubble (A major) field (Asus4) (A major)
Below (D major) it runs (E minor) the (A major) coal seam (D major) (Asus4)
I (D major) thought of Jimmy here
(A major) and (Asus4) there (E minor) (A major)
(E minor) But it was all (A major) a dream (D major)
He hewed (B minor) the very coals (E minor) we burn
(A major) And (B minor) when the firearm (E minor) lightene (A major) (D major) d (A major)
Just (D major) to think he held those very lumps
(A major) Well, it (E minor) sets me heart (A major) a (D major) -beatin'
It (G major) sets (E minor) me (D major) heart (A major) a (D major) -beatin'
For six long years he's followed me
(A major) Now (D major) I must live (E minor) without (A major) him
(D major) An (A major) d there's (D major) nothing more that I can do
But to (E minor) weep an (A major) d to think about (D major) him
So break me (B minor) heart, and (E minor) then it's (D major) (A major) over
Break (B minor) me (E minor) heart, (E major) me (A major) dear (D major) ie
(A major) An (D major) d lay me down in the cold green ground
(A major) Of a (E minor) single life (A major) I'm (E minor) weary, (G major) (D major)
(G major) Of a (E minor) single (D major) life (A major) I'm (B minor) weary.
(G major) (D major)
