Tonart: C major
Verse 1
C
I was born on the outland pass,
F
and bottled by my mother's hair
Am
Don't remember her face,
G
but I recall the smell of bad whiskey
Raised by an aunt on the
eastern shore,
F
brought me up this across the bear
Am
A yardstick, schoolmarm attitude,
G
C
a slight frown, a shitbox in my ear
F
And if I'd asked her what
F
She'd say, it's in your blood,
G
you are your father's son
F
Em
Dm
And you're gone, gone, gone
G
C
Off to heaven, gone
It weren't four years from my tenth birthday
F
I found myself in a uniform
Am
Fighting for the glory described to me
G
C
And waiting for my dram to come
G
some drunk thing I'd done
F
Sergeant said, it's just cause
F
Em
Dm
And you're gone, gone, gone
G
C
You're all to hell and gone
Em
E
Em
I went to church and
C
G
Sail on, silence came as my list was long
E
Em
An d last the vicar said
F
there ain't a prayer or a hymn
C
G
to turn you from that trip you're on
F
Em
Dm
Because you're gone, gone, gone,
G
C
off to hell and gone
Crossed the sea in a whaling ship
Am
And there I found the black -eyed girl
Dm
Am
G
C
who was gentle and kind to me
To the vicar a sabbath,
to the king a slave,
but she's the saintliest
Am
Forced to serve most of my life,
G
C
but this has finally set me free
F
G
Some would wonder what it was I'd done
F
G
In her arms, there's salvation to be won
F
Em
Dm
As I'm gone, gone, gone,
G
C
G
C
not off the hill and gone
F
Em
Dm
Oh, I'm not gone, gone, gone,
