    Em    G            Asus2 
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 


      Em 
Two drinks 
    G          Asus2 
In my line of sight 
      Am/C         G 
But that can?t be right 
    G           Asus2/F#  B7 
I know it?s untrue 
Em          G        Asus2 
I?m seeing double tonight 
              Am/C    B7/F#       Fill-2  B7  B/F# 
But there can only be one of you 
      B7        B7/F#         Em 
I?ve loaded my pockets with stones 
    Em      Am 
To bury my bones 
        Am           B7  (B7) 
In the mud of the bog 
    Em        G 
So let me go sailing  
  Asus2   Am/C  Asus2/F#  B7 
Away on my own 
      B7/F#     Em  G  C/G 
On a river of grog 
   B7/F#     Em  Em/B  Em  Em 
A river of grog

It?s been a barrel of fun 
Am         Am7 
I?m gonna miss you 
  D7/F#    G 
When I go 
     Gmaj7        Gmaj7 
But down in this bottle 
           G7          G7      C/G  C/G  Am  Am  B7  B7/F#  B7  B7 
There?s a song for me waiting I know
