[Em] [Dm] down [A] in old [Dm] Joe's.
On the corner [Gm] of the [Dm] square.
Drinks were [A] being served [Dm] as usual, [Bb] [Dm] and a goodly [A] crowd was there.
When upstep old Joe McGinney, his eyes [Gm] were [D] bloodshot red,
[Em] [Dm] as he told [A] to me [Dm] his story, [Bb] [Dm] this [A] is what [Dm] he said.
I went down to [A] St.
James [Dm] Infirmary, I saw [Gm] my baby [Dm] there,
[C] [Dm] stretched out [A] on a long white table, [Bb] so [Dm] sweet, so cold, so bare.
There were six [A] cold [Dm] black horses, hitched [Gm] to a rubber [D]-tired hack.
[A] [Dm] There were seven [Em] women going to [D] that graveyard, [Bb] [Dm] only six [Em] of them are [D] coming back.
[Dm] Let her go, [A] let her go, [Dm] God bless her, she never [Gm] did [Dm] love me.
[Em] She [Dm] can look [D] this whole [Dm] world over, [Bb] but [Dm] she can't [A] find another man [Dm] like me.
When I die, [A] I want [Dm] you to bury me, have a [Gm] showgirl [Dm] sing this song.
[A] [Dm] Put a jazz band on [Dm] my coffin, [Bb] to [Dm] raise hell [A] as I [Dm] go along.
Forget now [A] that you heard [Dm] my story.
I'm [Gm] another shot of booze, [A] and if anyone [Dm] should ask,
[Bb] I've [Dm] got those St.
[A] James [Dm] Infirmary blues.
