E5
They came for him one winter's night
E5
Arrested, he was bound
E5
They said there'd been a robbery
E5
His pistol had been found
E5 G5
They marched him to the station house
E5 D5
He waited till the dawn
E5 G5
And as they led him to the dock
D5 E5
He knew that he'd been wronged

Over the mountains and the seas

A prisoner's life for him there'll be

A secret it must stay
