(verse 1) (just pick these chords folk style)
In a Gneat little town they call Prockton
Apprenticed in trade I was Dbound
And Gmany an G/Fhour of sweet Emhappiness
I Cspent in that Dneat little Gtown
Then Gbad misfortune befell me
And caused me to stray from the Dland
Far Gaway from my GfrGieFnds and compEmanions
To Cfollow the Dblack velvet Gband

verse 2
As GI as out strolling one evening
Not intending to stay very Dlong
GI met a G/Ffrolicsome Emdamsel
As Cshe came Dtripping aGlong
A Gwatch she pulled out her pocket
And slipped it right into my Dhand
On the Gvery first G/Fnight that I Emmet her
Bad Cluck to the Dblack velvet Gband
Her Geyes they shone like the diamond
You'd think she was queen of the Dland
And her Ghair hung G/Fover her Emshoulder
Tied Cup in a Dblack velvet Gband
verse 3
BeGfore judge and jury next morning
Both of us did apDpear
A Ggentleman G/Fclaimed his Emjewelry
And the Ccase against Dus was Gclear
Now Gseven long years transportation
Right down to Van Dieman's Dland
Far Gaway from my G/Ffriends and coEmmpanions
To Cfollow this Dblack velvet Gband
Chorus
(verse 4) (use distorted open chords)
So Gcome all you jolly young fellows
I'll have you take warning by Dme
WhenGever you're G/Fout on the Emliquor
BeCware of the Dpretty CoGlleen
She'll Gfill you with whiskey and porter
Until you're not able to Dstand
And the Gvery next G/Fthing you'd Emknow
You've Clanded in DVan Dieman's GLand
