By day I sell them my soul
Am/C G
I work like a mole
G Asus2/F# B7/F#
Under the shop
Em G Asus2 Am/C
By night I’ll drink in the cold hole
B7/F# B7 Em G
But down in the nine-foot drop
B7 B7/F# Em
By day I’m a company mule
Em Am
The wage slaving fool
Am B7 B7/F#
They chain up like a dog
Em G Asus2
By night I’ll be sailing away
Am Asus2/F# B7
On my stool
B7/F# Em G C/G
On a river of grog
B7/F# Em G C/G B7/F# (B7/F#) B7
A river of grog
