Chris De Burgh - Treasure and Betrayal
Em Bm
It was on the trail of riches, we set off upon that day
Am B
To the Castle keep of Carisbrooke, to where the treasure lay
Em G
And soon I found the diamond at the bottom of the well
Am B
But that traitor of a Turnkey, to his death below he fell
Em
"Have a care, have a care,
C G D C D
T'was evilly come by and no good will you find there
Em
Have a care, have a care,
C G D C D Em
T'was evilly stolen, only pain and sorrow there - have a care!"
Em Bm
Then across the sea to Holland, with the jewel in my hand
Am B
Where we went to sell our treasure at the house of Aldebrand
Em G
When he said it was no diamond, through the window it was tossed
Am B
But that wicked man was lying and we were caught in a double-cross
Em
"Have a care, have a care,
C G D C D
T'was evilly come by and no good will you find there
Em
Have a care, have a care,
C G D C D Em
T'was evilly stolen, only pain and sorrow there - have a care!"
Gm
"What shall we do with the boy who's stealing?
F
What shall we do with the boy who's stealing?
Gm F Gm
What shall we do with the boy who's stealing, early in the morning?"
Gm
Throw him into jail let him rot forever
F
Throw him into jail let him rot forever
Gm F Gm
Throw him into jail let him rot forever, early in the morning!"
Em
"Have a care, have a care,
C G D C D
T'was evilly come by and no good will you find there
Em
Have a care, have a care,
C G D C D Em
T'was evilly stolen, only pain and sorrow there - have a care!"
