[B]
[E] [A] [E]
By a lonely prison wall [A] I heard a young [E] girl call
[B] Michael
[E] they [A] have taken you [B] away
Far [E] east of [A] Trevelyan Court So [E] the young might [B] see the morn
Now a prison ship lies waiting [E] in the bay
Low [A] lie [E] the [F#m] fields of [C#m] Battlerite [E] Where once we watched [C#m] the small free [B] birds fly
[E] [B]
Our [E] love was on [A] the wing We [E] had freedom songs [B] to sing
It's so lonely round the fields of [E] Battlerite
[A] [E] By
[B]
[E] [A] [E]
a lonely harbor wall She [A] watched the last [E] star fall
[B] As [E] the prison ship [A] sailed out against [B] the sky
For [E] she lives in hope [A] and praise For [E] her love in [B] Botany Bay
It's so lonely round the fields of [E] Battlerite
[A] [E]
[A] Low lie [E] the fields [F#m] of [C#m] Battlerite [E] Where once we watched [C#m] the small free [B] birds fly
