So, anyways, this is their story, Shamrock and Sabrina.
She met him after summer school, [D] the high off the bus stop, in a knockoff Celtics jacket.
Said this crew, they call him Shamrock.

I'll tell you about this song a little bit.
It's about two people I know from my hometown in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Their names are Sean and Sabrina.
But Sean actually, no one knows him as Sean.
He actually, he goes by Shamrock. _
He's kind of, this is a while back, and I'm 50, so you know, these are some older, you know, stories.
He was kind of in his house of pain phase at this point, you know.
Shamrock.
So, _ _ _ _ _ anyways, this is their story, Shamrock and Sabrina. _ _ _
She met him after summer school, _ [D] the high off the bus stop, in a knockoff Celtics jacket.
_ [A] _
Said this crew, they call him Shamrock.
[D] His mother died when he was [Bm] five, and his dad's some kind of drug cop.
_ [D] The apple [A] sometimes rolls way [D] down the hill. _ _ _ _
Sabrina claims the Southside.
_ Really, she's from Richfield.
These invisible divisions never [A] seem like such a big deal.
_ [D] She's been working at a wine bar, [Bm] making jokes about the mouth feel.
_ [D] She sometimes takes 20s from the till. _ _ _ _ _
[G] Unprovoked and unadorned.
White t-shirts and cut off shorts.
Summer takes a shapeless form, _ after dark and powder horn.
If you pull your funds [A] together, _ [Bm] then you're barely [D] ever broke. _ _
Walking up to Assay to get smokes. _ _ _
And in the spring they found some shambles.
_ The South Suburban sprawl.
_ Sabrina's taking classes. _
Shamrock's hanging [A] drywall.
_ [D] But his fingernails keep falling off, [Bm] and he comes home mean and sore.
_ [D]
Every day he hates it more and more. _ _ _
So the years go by and life goes on. _
Nothing really happens.
_ _ School became a drag, so she went back to [A] be a waitress.
_ _ [D] There isn't much to sit on, [Bm] when the old crew comes to visit. _
[D] So they all get high and pass out on the floor. _
_ _ _ Then one day Sean stops working. _
He said, it's such a meager pittance.
_ Once they take the taxes out, it's barely even [A] worth it. _
[D] The TV's set on static.
_ [Bm] There's drums off in the distance.
_ [D] _ Daughter's sleeping in a dresser drawer. _ _ _ _ _ _
Unrehearsed and unfulfilled.
[D] _ Applications, special skills.
_ She admits she sometimes [A] still takes 20s from the till.
_ _ [D] _ Shamrock's sick of trying to smile, [Bm] when he's holding in the [D] smoke.
_ _ He got talking to this guy he sort of knows. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Call came in this evening.
_ _ _ From the county credit union, these guys with masks and pistols.
_ Crashed in [A] as they were closing.
[D] By the time the cruisers came around, [Bm] they grabbed the cash and scattered.
[D] But the cameras [A] always capture all [D] the action. _ _
So a trooper pulled them over. _ _ _
Vehicle description.
At a Hampton Inn in Hudson. _
About a [A] mile into Wisconsin.
_ _ [D] When the footage ran on news at nine, [Bm] she could tell that it was Shamrock. _
[D] In that ragged satin jacket.
This is Boston.
_ _ _ _ _ Unrehearsed and unprepared.
_ To be the only one who cares.
For a daughter who keeps asking about her [A] father. _ _ _ _
_ [D] Pulled their funds [A] together.
_ [Bm] Somehow she [D] still broke.
_ _ Walking up to Speedway to get smoked. _ _ _ _ _
