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

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
