Chord/Tab song: Green Ginger Wine

After seeing the other tab here was slightly off I felt compelled to submit my
own. This is how i play the song and I'm fairly confident it's right. There might
be an instrumental section I missed but who really cares?

Enjoy, Olly.

N.C.
Oh kiss me Maggie & take me home,

For I sure dinnae feel like dyin? alone,

Gawn geez a shot, chuck a doggie a bone,

Or a penny for me rattlin? can,

D(let ring)
As sure as Christ it?s a bitter pill,

But if you won?t have me, yer sister will,

I?ll [D]cart me arse doon [D]Surry Hills & [D]call her [D]out this [D]ev[D]enin?,

Verse 1

[D]Go on, go well, ye?re [G]no catch o? mine,

[D]Yer clothes in rags, ye reek o? fags & [E]old green ginger [A]wine,

[D]My sisters aye a leezie into the [G]drinkin?, dogs & cards,

[D]My poor departed Father couldn?t [A]flog her at the [D]yards,

[D]I?m a man o? some renown ?Jack the [G]Lad? about the town,

[D]We?ll share a plate of oysters, crack the [E]neck o? Billy [A]Brown,

[D]Sly grog & salty treats, [G]I?ll not grant yer wish,

[D]I?m promised to the toll collector [A]boy upon the [D]bridge.

Chorus

[D]Like good whisky in bad [G]wounds,

[D]Like honey on a toothache, you?ll [E]never be [A]mine,

[D]Tho? we can dance, b?Jesus, we?ll [G]swing like the razors,

[D]Of Kate Leigh & [A]Tilly [D]Devine.

Verse 2

[D]Why wait until yer dancin? shoes are [G]scuffed and in the bin?

[D]I?ll stitch my holey duds, scrape the [E]whiskers from me [A]chin,

[D]We?ll get ye down yer scarlet gown, I?ll [G]steal you somethin? blue,

[D]I?d waltz off Millers point before I [A]walk the aisle with [D]you!
