Highlighted Show chord diagrams
I
C F
Oh! I wish I had someone to love me,
G7 C
Someone to call me their own.
F
Oh! I wish I had someone to live with,
G C
Cause I'm tired of livin' alone.
II
C F
I'll be carried to the new jail tomorrow,
G7 C
Leaving my poor darling alone
F
With cold prison bars all around me
G7 C
And my head on a pillow of stone.
(INSTRUMENTAL)

III
C F
Now I have a grand ship on the ocean
G7 C
All mounted with silver and gold
F
And before my poor darling would suffer
G7 C
Oh! that ship would be anchored and sold
IV
C F
Now if I had wings like an angel
G7 C
Over these prison walls I would fly
F
And I'd fly to the arms of my poor darlin'
G7 C
And there I'd be willing to die
