The Ballad OF Ned Kelly (chrom) Harmonica Tabs

19th C. Australian folk song

Key: A

Time: 2/4

-3 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 6 6

Oh pad-dy dear and did you hear

4* 4* -4 -4 4* -4

The news that’s go-ing round

6 6 -6* 6 -7 7* -6* 6

On the head of bold Ned Kel-ly

4* -3 -4 -3 -3 -4 -3

They have placed ten thou-sand pounds

-3-44* 4* 4* 4* 4* 6 6

And on Joe Byrne, Steve Hart and Dan

4* 4* -4 -4 4* -4

A thou-sand more they’d give

6 -6* 6 -7 7* -6* 6 4*

But if the price was dou-ble boys

-3 -4 -3 -3 -4 -3

The Kel-ly gang would live

-77* -6* 6 6 5* 6 -3 -3

‘Tis hard to think such pluck-y hearts

-4 4* -4 4* -5 5*

In crime should be em-ployed

-77* -6* 6 6 5* 5* 6 5*

‘Tis by po-lice per-se-cu-tion

-3 -4 4* -4 -4 -3 -4

They have all been much an-noyed

-3-4 4* 4* 4* 4* 4* 6 6

Re-venge is sweet and in the bush

4* 4* -4 -4 4* -4

They can de-fy the law

6 -6* 6 -7 7* -6* 6 4*

Such stick-ing up and plun-der-ing

-3 -4 -3 -3 -4 -3

You nev-er saw be-fore
