I think this is in A, but if not transpose I suppose.

Key of A= A|D|E
Key of G= G|C|D
Key of C= C|F|G
Key of D= D|G|A


A______________________________E
When I was a rude and rambling man
____________________________A
I bought my ticket to Burmingham
__________________________D
To Burmingham I paid my way
_____________E___________________A
To spend my money in a gambling way

I hadn't been there but a week or so
Till I met me a wife, she troubled me so
To support that girl both nice and gay
She caused me to rob the road highway

I robbed the train I will declare
I robbed it on the public square
On Sunday night I's roving around
When I robbed it of ten thousand pound

Now I am condemned to die
And a many pretty girls for me will cry
All their cries, they can't save me
Or free me from that gallows tree

In the City I paid my way
I got on board and I took my seat
The wheels did roll and the whistle did blow
In about nine days I rolled in home

My mama said she was all alone
My sister said she would weep and moan
My sweetheart sits in down despair
Gold diamond rings and curly hair

Oh, when I die don't bury me at all
Just stick my bones in alcohol
Place a marble stone on my head and feet
And go tell Hettie I'm just asleep.
