[Verse 1]
C
Yeah, when I go over yonder
G C
I will see my mother
C
My sister and my father
G C
But my brother is going to hell
[Verse 2]
C
Yeah, they hung him from the gallows
G C
As the sun turned red from yellow
C
And the crowd they heard him halting
G C
And they sighed with much relief
[Verse 3]
C
The preacher asked him for any last words
G C
My brother spit on to his clean shirt
C
And he smiled without redemption
G C
And said this is one soul God don't need
[Verse 4]
C
Oh, yes, I loved him but I won't miss him
G C
As he's burning and he's twisting
C
For his heartless dedication
G C
To the devil and it's creed
[Verse 5]
C
Oh, as a child we called him rotten
G C
'Til he was lonely and forgotten
C
And he revenged our constant jeering
G C
Oh, with his every word and deed
[Verse 6]
C
Oh, yeah and for my contribution
G C
Oh, and the souls lack of retribution
C
I would ask the Lords forgiveness
G C
On my very bended knee
[Verse 7]
C
Oh, it's the tale of Johnny Rotten
G C
Yeah, who was lonely and forgotten
C
And it's the tale of my only brother
G C
And it's the tale of one bad seed
