[Intro]
C G C
[Verse 1]
C
In a bend where the Lachlan flows peacefully on,
G
it stands in a clump of belahs.
A tumbledown relic of days that are gone
C
it dreams 'neath the light of the stars.
C
It is tenanted now by the owls and the bats,
G
and they fly in and out through the door.
But big bearded bushmen in cabbage tree hats,
C
ride up to the shanty no more.
[Interlude]
C G
[Verse 2]
G
Oh, what tales it could tell if its walls had a tongue,
D
of its lurid and larrikan past.
D
Of the jokes that were played and the songs that were sung,
D7 G
when the gin and the whiskey flowed fast.
G
A hard drinking lot were those bushmen of old,
C
and they gathered from near and from far,
G
Oh, but all of the riders lie under the mould,
D G
who drank in that tumbledown bar.
[Interlude]
G C
[Verse 3]
C
Ben Hall often sampled it's whisky and gin,
G
when he came to the bend with his gang.
G
And the walls and the rafters rang loud to the din,
C
of the boisterous songs that they sang.
C
Ben Hall was a troublesome person at times,
G
but he paid like a man for his grog.
G
And he paid in full measure at last for his crimes,
C
the police shot him down like a dog.
[Interlude]
C G
[Verse 4]
G
Oh, but time is a tyrant and time travels fast,
D
and the old shanty stands in the shade.
D
And mourns for the men of that picturesque past,
D7 G
of the jokes and the antics they played.
G
The curlews lament from the rushes and reeds,
C
when the shadows of evening descend.
G
Big, bearded bushmen on half broken steeds,
D G
come riding no more to the bend.
[Interlude]
G G G C
M-m-m-m
[Verse 5]
C
But the old hands declare that on cold winter nights,
G
when the heavens are misty and blurred.
G
The Shanty is filled with mysterious lights,
D7 C
and voices and laughter are heard.
C
And they say you can see when the door swings ajar,
G
a figure black bearded and tall.
G
Revolver in hand by the side of the bar,
C
and they swear it's the ghost of Ben Hall.
[Outro]
F C
Revolver in hand by the side of the bar,
G C
and they swear it's the ghost of Ben Hall.

Look out or I'll shoot. ....
