Bar the Door Casey The Rumjacks
Intro: Am / E
Ba[Am]r the door Casey, d[C]on't let me [G]in,
My [Am]shade'll not cross your dear [E]threshold again,
Ba[Am]r the door Casey, m[C]ind the way [G]well,
An[Am]d send my poor ghost on to [E]heaven or [Am]hell.
We[Am]ve fought scores of sailors for the s[C]uds frae a[G] keg,
O'er the d[Am]raw of a card, or a r[E]are glimpse of leg,
We've gr[Am]aced Kuta's beaches with our p[C]allid white [G]skin,
Now C[Am]asey old mate, my b[E]arge has come [Am]in.
Ba[Am]r the door Casey, d[C]on't let me [G]in,
My [Am]shade'll not cross your dear [E]threshold again,
Ba[Am]r the door Casey, m[C]ind the way [G]well,
An[Am]d send my poor ghost on to [E]heaven or [Am]hell.

We've[Am] stormed foreign strands & [C]taken our [G]knocks,
Held [Am]fast to our picket & lay si[E]ege to the docks,
We've[Am] mourned pals & lovers too [C]long fore their [G]time,
Now [Am]Casey old China, the [E]parting is [Am]mine.
Ba[Am]r the door Casey, d[C]on't let me [G]in,
My [Am]shade'll not cross your dear [E]threshold again,
Ba[Am]r the door Casey, m[C]ind the way [G]well,
An[Am]d send my poor ghost on to [E]heaven or [Am]hell.
I've [Am]penned a few lines to my[C] missus of [G]years,
If ye [Am]find where she's staying, don't [E]wait for the tears,
And I've [Am]left a wee sum for to [C]see me [G]away,
And a [Am]pint to fond memory at the [E]close of the [Am]day.
Ba[Am]r the door Casey, d[C]on't let me [G]in,
My [Am]shade'll not cross your dear [E]threshold again,
Ba[Am]r the door Casey, m[C]ind the way [G]well,
An[Am]d send my poor ghost on to [E]heaven or [Am]hell...
An[Am]d send my poor ghost on to [E]heaven or [Am]hell.
