[G] When the party hit first [C] swing I saw you come a-reeling [G] in
You had that six-pack in a [C] stranglehold [Em]
[G] Now you stagger, now you sway

[F] Don't sit on my Jimmy Shines [C] Don't sit on my Jimmy [F] Shines
And that's my very [G] best advice [C] to you [G] Call me precious, I don't [C] mind
Seventy years, a hard [G] fight You just can't get the shellac [C] since the war
