Intro
A#m C#
Come on Irishmen both young and old
G# D#7
With adventure in your soul
A#m C#
There are better ways to spend your days
G# D#7
Then by working down a hole
[Chorus]
C# G#
I was tall and true all of 6 foot 2
A#m G#
Til they broke me across my back
A#m C#
By a name I'm known that is not my own
G# D#7 A#m
For they call me crooked Jack
[Verse]
A#m C#
And I curse the day I went away
G# D#7
To work on those hydro dams
A#m C#
All our sweat and tears our hopes and fears
G# D#7
Bound up with shuttering jams
[Chorus]
C# G#
I was tall and true all of 6 foot 2
A#m G#
Til they broke me across my back
A#m C#
By a name I'm known that is not my own
G# D#7 A#m
For they call me crooked Jack
[Verse]
A#m C#
For I've seen men old before their time
G# D#7
Their faces worn and gray
A#m C#
But I never thought that I myself
G# D#7
Would soon be the self same way
[Chorus]
C# G#
I was tall and true all of 6 foot 2
A#m G#
Til they broke me across my back
A#m C#
By a name I'm known that is not my own
G# D#7 A#m
For they call me crooked Jack
[Verse]
A#m C#
And they say that honest toil is good
G# D#7
For the body and the soul
A#m C#
But I'll tell you boys it's for sweat and blood
G# D#7
That they want you down the hole
[Chorus]
C# G#
I was tall and true all of 6 foot 2
A#m G#
Til they broke me across my back
A#m C#
By a name I'm known that is not my own
G# D#7 A#m
For they call me crooked Jack
