Verse 1:

C5 F5

Searching for the best break

C5 G5

The black forties could afford them

C5 F5

Came these ever-proud world-renowned

F5 C5 G5

Rowdy, roving men

C5 F5

With a firmness and a purpose

C5 G5

That so many did dismiss

C5 F5

Sailed these huddled human ballasts on their

F5 C5 G5

stinking coffin ships

Chorus:

F5 G5

From the prison of their lonely hearts

F5 G5

They labored long and hard

F5 G5 (start playing intro)

Working 18 hour days for the B.A.C.

Verse 2: play like verse 1

Intelligent, repectable

But made of modest means

With an independent spirit,

So full of hopes and dreams

Opportunity denied them in a

Doomed and starving land

Came these openhearted kindly spirits

Of a truly threatened man

Chorus: play like other chorus

From the prison of their lonely hearts

They labored long and hard

Working 18 hour days for the B.A.C.

Verse 3: mostly just bass, but the guitar plays in the spots where I put he chords

Searching for the best break

The black forties could afford them

Came these ever-proud world-renowned

F5 C5 G5

Rowdy, roving men

With a firmness and a purpose

That so many did dismiss

C5

Sailed these huddled human ballasts on their

F5 C5 G5

stinking coffin ships

Chorus: play like other choruses

From the prison of their lonely hearts

They labored long and hard

Working 18 hour days for the B.A.C

The B.A.C.

The B.A.C.

The B.A.C.

F5 C5

That's it. There is actally a line after "They labored long and hard" but I

couldn't hear what they were saying in the song and all the lyrics that I found

didn't have it. Anyway, if you figure it out let me know. Later.
