[Intro 1]
[D][Am][B]
[Gm][Bb][Bbdim][D]

[Verse 1]
Hush my little [A]one
don`t [Am]cry [D]so
[B]You know your
[Em]Daddy`s bound to go[A][D]
They took [A]his pride
They took his [Bm]voice
Don`t upset him now,
[F#]don`t make a noise
[G]They said "You`re lucky son
[Gm]you've still got [Bbdim]a choice"
[Bm]Last [Bbaug]boat leav[D]ing[Abdim]
[G]

[Verse 2]
Don`t [D]waste your tears
It`s not as if I`m in chains
I don`t want to [Bm]go now,
[A]it would be [Bbdim]bet ter for
[Bm]You, [E]too, if I [A]don`t look
back [D]when we sail

[Verse 3]
[D]
Hush my dear, while I [Am]whisper it in
your [C]ear[B]
We`re not going to sail tonight
[Em]We`re going to disappe[A]ar
And it [D]feels like a punishment,
[A]but I don`t know what for
[B]Take care of your mother, s[Bm]on,
it`s [F#]you that she adores
[G]`Cos no matter how long we sail
we`ll never [Gm]reach the shore
[Bm]Last[Bbaug][D][Abdim][G]
[Gm]boat[G] lea[D]ving

[Verse 4]
So dry your [D]tears
It`s not as if I`m in chains
When you go [Bm]to school, son,
[A]you`ll read my [Bm]story in history [E]books
[A]Only they won`t men[D]tion my name

[Verse 5]
So [D]hush now, my darling, my sweet little one
I [A]hope [D]that you never have
to do what I`ve done
Do you know what I've done?
Why [Am]I`m going away? On [B]the last
boat [Bm]leaving [Em]this stinking [A]town
It`s [Bm]the last [Bbaug]boat leav[D]ing[Abdim],
[G]it`s the[Bm] last boa[Bb]t lea[D]ving[E]

[Verse 6]
[Bb]You've had my innocence,
[C]you've had my heartbreak
You've [Gm]taken the place
where I once belonged
Now [C]what more can you [D]take?

[Outro 1]
[Bm][Bb][Gm][D]
