[Verse 1]
[D]Take this hammer,
carry it to the [A]captain
Take this hammer, carry it to [D]the captain
Take this hammer, carry it to [G]the captain
[Gm]Tell him [D]I'm gone,
[A]boys, tell him I'm [D]gone
If he asked you, was I [A]laughing?
If he asked you, was I [D]laughing?
If he asked you, was I [G]laughing?
[Gm]Tell him I was[D] crying, boys
[A]Tell him I [D]was cryin'
If he asks you, was I [C]run[A] nin'?
If he asks you, was I [D]runnin'?
If he asks you, was I [G]runnin'?
You can [D]tell him I was fine, boys
[A]Tell him I [D]was fine
When I'm long gone
Follow on [A]behind me
When I'm [C#dim]long gone[A]
Follow on [D]behind me
When I'm long gone
Follow on be[G]hind me
And [Gm]if I[D] see you
[A]The boat be [D]free[A][D]
Take this hammer
Carry it to [G]the captain
[Gm]Tell him I'm g[D]one,
[A]Tell him I'm [D]gone
Tell him I'm gone, boys
[A]Tell him I'm [D]gone
Tell him I'm gone, boys
[A]Tell him [D]I'm [G]gone[D]
