[A] [Em] [D]
When I was a young lad about [A] eighteen, I'd go out on the parties and [Em] I'd drink with [D] the men.
They said when I grow [A] up so drunk I'll be, From the smell of the bottle I'll [D] never be free.
For I drink, I drink all night and [A] all day, And the more that I drink the more [C#] I [D] put away.
Nobody knows what my future [A] might be, For they say there's no hope for a [G] drunkard [D] like me.
[A] And [Em] [D]
I remember my own home, it [A] gives me thrill, And the nights that I spent with Joe [D] Fark on the hill.
We'd stay there all week and he was never [A] [E] alone, [A] Because I was [D] always too drunk to know.
At last Sunday morning as I went [A] to pray, In a quaint little church just [Em] across [D] the way,
As the service continued it was [A] all plain to [E] see, [A] That there wasn't enough wine for the [D] preacher and me.
For I drink, I drink all [A] night and all day, And the more that I drink the more [C#] I put [D] away.
Nobody knows what my future [A] might be, For they say there's no hope for a [C#] drunkard [D] like me.
[A] [Em] [D]
And the years have passed and I've [A] grown old, They say too much booze is [Em] bad [D] for the soul.
Well if we fix your kidneys and [A] it uproots your hair, Makes no difference to me cause I'm too drunk [D] to care.
For I drink, I drink [A] all night and all day, And the more that I drink the [Em] more I [D] put away.
Nobody knows what my [A] future might be, For they say there's no hope [Em] for a [D] drunkard like me.
[A] Yes they say there's no hope [Am] for a [C#m] [D] drunkard like me.
