Tom: Am
Am E7 Am
It was down at old Joe's bar room
Am F7+ C E7
At the corner by the square
Am E7 Am Am/G
They were serving drinks as usual
F7+ E7 Am
And the usual crowd was there
Am E7 Am
On my left stood big Joe MacKennedy
Am F7+ C E7
His eyes were bloodshot red
Am E7 Am Am/G
And as he turned to the crowd around him
F7+ E7 Am
These were the very words he said.
Am E7 Am
I went down to St. James Infirmary
Am F7+ C E7
I saw my baby there
Am E7 Am Am/G
Stretched out on a long, white table
F7+ E7 Am
So young, so cold, so fair
Am E7 Am
Seventeen coal-black horses
Am F7+ C E7
Hitched to a rubber-tied hack
Am E7 Am Am/G
Seven girls goin' to the graveyard
F7+ E7 Am
Only six of them are coming back
Am E7 Am
Let her go. Let her go, God bless her
Am F7+ C E7
Wherever she may be
Am E7 Am Am/G
She may search this wide world over
F7+ E7 Am
And never find another man like me
Am E7 Am
When I die just bury me
Am F7+ C E7
In my high-top Stetson hat
Am E7 Am Am/G
Place a twenty-dollar gold piece on my watch chain
F7+ E7 Am
My gang will know I died standing pat
Am E7 Am
I want six crap-shooters for my pallbearers
Am F7+ C E7
A chorus girl to sing me a song
Am E7 Am Am/G
Put a jazz band on my hearse wagon
F7+ E7 Am
To raise hell as we roll along
Am E7 Am
Let her go. Let her go, God bless her
Am F7+ C E7
Wherever she may be
Am E7 Am Am/G
She may search this wide world over
F7+ E7 Am
And never find sweet man like me
Am E7 Am
Now that you've heard my story
Am F7+ C E7
I'll take another shot of booze
Am E7 Am Am/G
And if anyone here should ask you
F7+ E7 Am
I've got the gambler's blues
Am E7 Am
Let her go. Let her go, God bless her
Am F7+ C E7
Wherever she may be
Am E7 Am Am/G
She may search this wide world over
F7+ E7 Am
And never find sweet man like me
