G                                                    Am
The wind howls mournful and low o'er the hole in his heart
G                                                    Am
Left a note for his Mother to say he'd be joinin' his Da'
C                                        G
He said "The Devil's all pissed 'cause I danced with his daughter
C                                        G
I were born to be hung, so I don't fear the water
C                             D                  G
If he wants me he can chase me below the terrible sea."
G                                                    Am
There's a pinch of tobacco tucked into the sleeve of his coat
G                                                    Am
And a dirty black penny to pay the old man on the boat
C                                        G
He honours the rocks with a cruciform pose
C                                        G
Singin' "my love is like a red, red rose"
C                             D                  G
In a single explosion he's gone to the terrible sea
