The chordings for all the other versions of this song didn't sound right to me. So I decided to try it myself. The song has a root of F major, so all the chords are in relations. Thanks to Tim & Cheryl Wartman for doing the original chording and words. Standard Tuning Enjoy! -Shaun The Old Black Rum
I drank Fsixteen doubles for the Cprice of Fone BbTrying to find the cFourage to taGlk Cto one I asked her Bbfor Ca daFnce, not a BbsecCond glaFnce My night had just Cbegun
WeFll I drink Cto thFe Father or the Holy Ghost BbI'm kneelingF at the altarG of Cmy nightly post So I'll raiBbse thCe glFass, not the firBbst oCr laFst Come joiCn me in thFis toast
Chorus
Because the Cold black rum's got a Fhold of me Like a Fdog wrapped roBbund my lCeg And the oCld black rum's got a hFold of me Well I'm hFere for anoCther dFay, BbHey Well I'm hFere for anoCther dFay
Well the queen of George Street just a walking on by. Walking on by with some guy who don't care That she stood in line since half past nine. And spent three hours on her hair....on her hair Well her friend is looking at me with an evil grin I think the bloody racket might soon begin I must have said something to the George Street queen and boys I'm joining in Chorus So I drank all of my money and I slept out in the rain Every day is different but the night are all the same You never see the sun on the old black rum But you know I'm gonna do it again chorus
