@Heahmount Hey bud, not sure on the exact chords to be honest with ya, I had them written down and they've since landed in an unsorted file a while ago. Having a quick watch of my hands though I'd guess this version is in the key of C. Hopefully that'll help you some, if you ever record a version send me the link!
I love your rendition so much.....I learnt the words at school in Australia, and I agree totally what you say about the power of folk music....there is something deep inside me that is touched by the tune, and the words....."only us poor convicts know what we go through".....thank you for your brilliant singing of a song that means alot to me
@jagdpanther1944 Thanks for sharing your personal connection with this tune, I love hearing about things like that, it's one of the best parts of folk music!
Good performance, Travis. Thanks for the video response and the detailed background information. I'm sure your version is more authentic as I think mine was originally from a songbook meant for young school children.

as someone who was "transported" in 1972 out to Australia and NZ (10 pound pom)
at the age of seven....
I sure appreciate this song (ironically I grew up in the suburb next to Botany Bay)
Now I am back home in England:)
