[Intro]
C G C

[Verse]
C G C G C
There is a place out in the Yukon and lying there a shipwright's bones
F C Dm C F G C
By his side, his adze and compass and by his feet there is a curling stone
F C G C
Lying by his feet there is a curling stone
C G C G
A fountain pen, lies in his waistcoat, although they found no written
C
fare-well
F C Dm C F G
He died on a night that was as cold as his family, oh it was icy at the gates
C
of hell
F C G C
Sur-prised that it was icy at the gates of hell

[Chorus]
C F G C
Fare thee well, brave Uncle Francis, when the snow flakes fall I will sing

the blues
C F C G
And when I think of how you left this world, I will remember how the world
C G C
left you

[Verse]
C G C G
They say he fell for an Indian maiden, who was more lovely than mere words
C
could tell
F C Dm C F
And he lay in her arms and they bathed in the moonlight, He softly sang of
G C
the Bailieborough Bell
F C G C
He sang to the maiden of the Bailieborough Bell
