C Am C F G
1. In a neat little town they call Belfast, apprenticed to trade I was bound
C Am G G7 C
And many an hours’ of sweet happiness, have I spent in that neat little town.
F C Am G
A sad misfortune came over me, which caused me to stray from the land
C Am G G7 C
Far away from me friends and relations, betrayed by the black velvet band.
Chorus:
C Am C F G
Her eyes they shone like diamonds, I thought her the queen of the land
C Am G G7 C
And her hair it hung over her shoulders tied up with a black velvet band
C Am C F G
2. I took a stroll down Broadway, meaning not long for to stay
C Am G G7 C
When who should I meet but this pretty fair maid coming traipsin’ along the highway
F C Am G
She was both fair and handsome, her neck it was just like a swan
C Am G G7 C
And her hair it hung over her shoulder, tied up with a black velvet band
Chorus:
C Am C F G
Her eyes they shone like diamonds, I thought her the queen of the land
C Am G G7 C
And her hair it hung over her shoulders tied up with a black velvet band
C Am C F G
3. I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid, and a gentleman passing us by
C Am G G7 C
Well I knew she meant the doing of him, by the look in her roguish black eye.
F C Am G
A gold watch she took from his pocket and placed it right in to my hand
C Am G G7 C
And the very first thing that I said was bad 'cess to the black velvet band
Chorus:
C Am C F G
Her eyes they shone like diamonds, I thought her the queen of the land
C Am G G7 C
And her hair it hung over her shoulders tied up with a black velvet band
C Am C F G
4. Before the judge and the jury, next morning I had to appear
C Am G G7 C
The judge he says to me: "Young man, your case it is proven clear.
F C Am G
We'll give you seven years penal servitude, to be spent far away from the land
C Am G G7 C
Far away from your friends and relations, betrayed by the black velvet band."
Chorus:
C Am C F G
Her eyes they shone like diamonds, I thought her the queen of the land
C Am G G7 C
And her hair it hung over her shoulders tied up with a black velvet band
C Am C F G
5. So come all you jolly young fellows, a warning take by me
C Am G G7 C
Whe-n yo-u are out on the town me lads, beware of them pretty colleens
F C Am G
For they fe-ed you wi-th strong drink, "me lads", 'til you are unable to stand
C Am G G7 C
And the very first thing that you'll know is, you've landed in Van Diemens’ Land
Chorus:
C Am C F G
Her eyes they shone like diamonds, I thought her the queen of the land
C Am G G7 C
And her hair it hung over her shoulders tied up with a black velvet band
