Bm D E Bm A D E
oh that a young man should be treated this way
chorus :
F#m F# Bm F#m A E

no purse for a champion , no true love come over the stile
the debt of a poor man , hell pay in awhile
poor ladies , poor gentleman , born of a sorry degree
will you laugh for the hangman when he comes for his fee?
