Streets Of Forbes chords by June tabor
Verse 1
F
Am
Dm
God,
I'm all of you Loughlin men
F
G
Dm
And a terrible tale I'll tell
Concerning all the poor stranger
F
Am
Who with misfortune fell
Dm
His name it was Ben Hall,
G
Am
a man of high renown
A
Dm
G
He was hunted from his station
Dm
Am
and like a dog shot
Dm
F
Am
Dm
down
Three years he roamed the roads
F
G
Dm
And he showed the traps some fun
A thousand pounds was on his head
F
Am
With Gilbert and John Donne
Dm
And parted from his comrades,
G
Am
the outlaw dead agreed,
Dm
G
To give away Bush arranging,
Dm
Am
and to cross the raging
Dm
F
Am
Dm
sea.
Ben went to Gubang Creek,
F
G
Dm
that was his downfall
F
For, riddled like a sieve, was Valiant Ben
Am
Dm
It was early in the morning,
G
Am
upon the 5th of May
Dm
G
That the Severn police surrounded him
Dm
Am
Dm
As in his sleepy life
F
Am
Dm
Beldogan, he was chosen
F
G
Dm
To shoot the outlaw dead
The others fired madly
F
Am
As if they were afraid
Dm
Then they rolled him in his blanket
G
A
And they tied him to his brad
A
Dm
And they dragged him
G
through the streets of force
Dm
To show the prize they had you
