THE BALLAD OF ROBBIE JONES
{Levellers}

| D | G | D | A |

D
There was Robbie Jones he used to walk so tall
G
you know he'd hurt no one at all
D
chased the girls around the world
A
danced them round the dance halls

Then it just goes on like that the rest of the song (I think, I'm a bit
uncertain about the chorus part)

Lyrics:

We'd have a drink and then he'd sink
into nostalgic talk
we carried him home in the falling snow
when he was to drunk to walk

Then came the day we were
sent away we got our
papers posted through the door
and sent of to war

Then dear old Tom sing a song
and he'd play the guitar
he'd tell us all the stories
of his travels near and far

Signed up one day to learn a trade
but that dream did'nt go far
he'd be fighting Argentinians
with a gun not his guitar

Then came the day...

| D | G | D | A | x2 (or something like that)

Then came the day we were
sent away we got our
papers posted through the door

and I remember that day like     (I did'nt quite make these lyrics 
yesterday that was                out but it's something like this)
papers posted through the door
and sent off to war

| D | G | D | A | x2

A
and sent off to war...
