[B] _ [Bb] _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ was down [Bb] in Old Jones [Ebm] Barroom, [Bb] _ [Ebm] on the corner [Abm] [B] by [Bb] the square.
_ [Ebm] All the drinks [Bb] were served as [Gb] usual, _ and the [Db] usual [Gb] [Bb] crowd, [Ebm] it was there.
[Bb] [Gb] Right next to me stood [Bb] Big Joe [Ebm] McKinney, _ [Bb] [Ebm] his eyes were [Abm] [Gb] bloodshot red.
_ [Ebm] He turned [Bb] to the crowd [Gb] around him, and these were the [Bb] words [Gb] that he said.
[Bb] I [Ebm] was down at some [Bb] giant [Ebm] confraternity, [Bb] to [Gb] see [Abm] my [Bb] baby there.
_ [Gb] [Ebm] She was drenched down on [Bb] the long, [Gb] long [Ebm] trip home, _ [Gbm] so pale, [Bb] so [Ebm] cold, and so fair.

[Ebm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] [Gb] Now let her go, [Bb] let her go, God [Ebm] bless her, [Bb] wherever [Ebm] _
[Abm] she may [Bb] be.
She [Ebm] can search that old bottle over, she'll never find a [Gbm] good-loving [Bb] man like [Ebm] me.
_ _ [Bb] [Gb] And when I die, [Bb] please [Ebm] bury [Bb] me, [Ebm] in my [Ab] white, dark, [B] stents [Bb] of hell.
[Gbm] _ [Ebm] Put a gold piece on the watch chain, so the gamblers can [Gbm] see that I [Bb] [Ebm] died standing prepared.
[Bb] [Gb] And get six gamblers [Bb] to carry [Ebm] my coffin, six garriscares [Abm] to [Gb] sing [Bb] my song.
_ [Gb] [Ebm] Put a jazz band [Bb] on the [Ebm] horse wagon, _ [Db] to raise [Gbm] hell [Bb] as we [Ebm] march along. _
[Bb] And [Ebm] I'll let you [Bb] hear my sad [Ebm] story, _
[Bb] [Ebm] let's have [Abm] another [Bb] round of _ [Ebm] booze.
And if anyone should ask, you go on tell them, I got the St.
[A] _ James [Bb] _ Infirmary blues.
