Down on the corner by the squaaaaarrrrre

Am Dm Am
Well, I went down to Old Joe's Barroom
Am Dm C E
Down on the corner by the square
Am Dm Am
They were serving drinks as usual
C E Am
Oh, the usual crowd was there
Am Dm Am
In the corner sat Big Joe McKenzie
Am Dm C E
His eyes were blood shot red
Am Dm Am
And as he turned to address the crowd around him
C E Am
These were the very words that he said:
(Speed up strumming down up down pattern)
Am Dm Am
Well I went down to St James Infirmary
Am Dm C E
To see my baby there
Am Dm Am
She was laid out on that long white table
C E Am
So cold, so pale, so fair
Am Dm Am
Let her go, let her go, God bless her
Am Dm C E
Where ever she may be
Am Dm Am
Let her search that whole wide world over
C E Am
Never find a man as sweet as me
Am Dm Am
She'll never find a man as sweet as me
Am Dm C E
When I die, won't you bury me in my high top Stetson hat
Am Dm Am
Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch hand
C E Am
So the gang'll know I died standing pat
Am Dm Am
I want six crapshooters for pallbearers
Am Dm C E
Pretty gals sing me a song
Am Dm Am
I want a jazz band on my hearse wagon
C E Am
To raise Hell as we roll 'long
Am Dm Am
Won't you roll out that rubber tarmac
Am Dm C E
Thirteen men go down to that old graveyard
Am Dm Am
There's only twelve of them men coming back
Am Dm Am
Now that you heard my story
Am Dm C E
Have another shot of the booze
Am Dm Am
Anything anybody should ask
C E Am
I got the St James Infirmary blues
C E Am
I got the St James Infirmary blues
