Chords for St James Infirmary (The Delousing Sessions)

[Bbm] _ _ [Bb] Went out on the porch, smoked a bag of meth. _

I'm a man [F] down to the [Ebm] boat, [Bbm] toes bowed around me.
_ [Gb] On the corner [Db] [F] by the square.
_ _ [Bbm] Drinks were [F] being served, [Bbm] as usual, [Ab] or
[Gb] Hand of good [Fm] lead, the crowd [Bbm] was there.
_ When my [F] step is [Fm] on the [Bbm] candy,
_ _ [Gb] Lady's [Db] eyes, her eyes are bloodshot [Fm]
red.
[A] As [Bbm] he poured [F] on himself [Bbm] more whiskey,
[Ab] _ [Gb] Oh, these are the very [Fm] words that he [Bbm] said.
_ Said I'm a man in [F] love, it's a [Ebm] dream, it's a [Bbm] dream.
And [Gb] I [Db] saw my [F] baby there,
_ [Ab] [Bbm] Stretched out [F] along [Bbm] right [Ab] below.
_ [Gb] Soon she'd see [Bbm] the scales of the cold, and so God went there.
_ _ [Ab] Oh, go, [Bbm] go, God bless her soul, let her [Fm] see me [Ab] be.
She's just a little wild, but I'm [Bbm] going to bust her like a runaway, like me.
[Ab] When I die, bury [Bbm] me in my straight-laced shoes.

_ _ [Bbm] Oh, pouring down [F] with old [Bbm] feast in [Ab] my watch chain.
[Gb] So my boys will know [F] I died [Bbm] standing pat.
_ Well, there's six [F] kings called [Bbm] black horses,
[Gb] And there's still [Bbm] a world of [Fm] fire left.
_ [F] _ [Bbm] We must stand with [Am] no way to [Bb] lie to the pretty [Ab] God.
[Gb] Oh, this is the [Fm] end of the fire, I'm [Bbm] coming back.
_ Oh, go, [F] go, [Bbm] God bless her soul, [Gb] let her [Bbm] see [Fm] me be.
[F] _ [Bbm] She hates nurses, [F] oh, I have [Bbm] her all [Ab] over.
[Ebm] No matter what I'm done, no matter what [Bbm] I'm done,

_ And I [Bbm] want a big [F] old jazz band [Gb] riding on the back [Ab] of my hand
To [Gb] race me down [F] as we go [Bbm] along.
_ And now [F] that you've heard [Bbm] my story,
_ Won't you buy [Db] me a [Fm] brush for that [Ab] booze?
[Bbm] And if any [F] man, [Bbm] he should [Ab] ask you,
