Chris De Burgh - Treasure and Betrayal


       Em                             Bm
It was on the trail of riches, we set off upon that day
       Am                             B
To the Castle keep of Carisbrooke, to where the treasure lay
    Em                              G
And soon I found the diamond at the bottom of the well
         Am                           B
But that traitor of a Turnkey, to his death below he fell


        Em
"Have a care, have a care,
      C                     G         D        C      D
T'was evilly come by and no good will you find there
       Em
Have a care, have a care,
      C                   G        D      C     D         Em
T'was evilly stolen, only pain and sorrow there -  have a care!"

      Em                                 Bm
Then across the sea to Holland, with the jewel in my hand
         Am                               B
Where we went to sell our treasure at the house of Aldebrand
        Em                                  G
When he said it was no diamond, through the window it was tossed
         Am                               B
But that wicked man was lying and we were caught in a double-cross


        Em
"Have a care, have a care,
      C                     G         D        C      D
T'was evilly come by and no good will you find there
       Em
Have a care, have a care,
      C                   G        D      C     D         Em
T'was evilly stolen, only pain and sorrow there -  have a care!"


 Gm
"What shall we do with the boy who's stealing?
F
What shall we do with the boy who's stealing?
Gm                                            F            Gm
What shall we do with the boy who's stealing, early in the morning?"


Gm
Throw him into jail let him rot forever
F
Throw him into jail let him rot forever
Gm                                       F            Gm
Throw him into jail let him rot forever, early in the morning!"

"Have a care, have a care,
