[Em] Forty thousand head men [Am] couldn't make me change my mind
[Bm] If I had to take the choice [Am] between a deaf man and a blind
[D] I'd know just where my feet should go, [Am] and that's enough for me
[Bm] I'd turn around and knock them [A] down and [G] walk across [Em] the sea
I [Em] hadn't traveled very [A] far when suddenly I saw
[D] Three small ships a-sailing [Am] off toward the distant shores
[Bm] So lighting up a cigarette [A] I followed in pursuit
[D] And found a secret [Bm] cave [Em] where they obviously stashed the loot
[E] They ran just my pockets [A] near and snuffed it up my mouth
[E] I must have ran [A] eyes between my [E] ears before the [A] dawn
I found the train getting [E] by and soaring high above the [A] clouds
I [Em] found a golden shrine
[D] [Em] Laying
[D] [Em] down my [A] treasure before the iron gate
[E] [Bm] Quickly rang the bell [Am] hoping I hadn't come too late
[Bm] But [D] someone came along and told [Am] me not to waste my time
[Bm] And when I [F#m] asked him who he [Am] was he [Em] said, just look [E] behind
So I turned around and [A]
[E] I [A] reached the manor
[E] But luckily for me they had [A] to stop and then reload
[E] And by the time they'd left [Am] I [Em] was heading down the road
