Subject: Don't Rob Another Man's Castle

Here's another oldy. I've played it for many years to my kids and now, my
grandkids. Again, I don't know the author or the rest of the verses.  Other
submitters, please help me if you can.

DON'T ROB ANOTHER MAN'S CASTLE
3/4 Time [G] slowly

[G]Don't rob [D]another [D7]man's [G]castle [G7]
For [C]he's like a [F#dim]king on a [G]throne [G7]

It [C]may be a [F#dim]shack, down [G]along side the [Em]tracks
But [A]everything in it's his [D]own [D7]


[G]Don't think of [D]taking his [G]loved one [G7]
For [C]it's written, "Thou Shalt Not [B]Steal"

[C]Don't rob [F#dim]another man's [G]castle [Em]
For [C]someone just [D]stole it from [G]me


about that [f#dim] - [x x 2 3 2 3] - I call it an F#dim chord because I
believe it to be a diminish chord in the F# position. I'm probably wrong, I
know, but I like the sound of it :)
