G C
Hold me now,
G C G
hold me now
G D/F# Em C D D4 D9 D
Till this hour has gone around
Bm Em
And I´m gone on the rising tide
C G D G C G
for to face Van Diemen´s Land
G C G C G
It´s a bitter pill I swallow here
G D/F#Em C D D4 D9 D
To be a rent from one so dear
Bm Em
we fought for justice and not for gain
C G D G C G
But the magistrate sent me away
G C G C G
Now Kings will rule and the poor will toil
G D/F# Em C D D4 D9 D
And tear their hands as they tear the soil
Bm Em
But a day will come in the downing age
C G D G C G
When an honest man sees an honest wage
Hold me now, hold me now
