C                             G           CGeorge turned to Sam with his gold in his hand,
       F                                       CSaid: "Sam you're a-lookin'at a lonely, lonely man.
      F                                       C"I'd trade all the gold that's buried in this land,
                                        G                     C"For one small band of gold to place on sweet little Ginnie's hand. 

        C                    G                C"'Cos a man needs a woman to love him all the time.
   F                                      C"Remember, Sam, a true love is so hard to find.
