St James Infirmary Blues

	  		

Intro: Em B7 

Em 
Barkeep, barkeep, gimme another shot of that Old Crow 

Em         B7             Em 
Tell you a story about my friend Big Joe 



           Em      B7        Em 
Said I was down in Old Joe's barroom 

Em         B7      Em 
Right there in the square 

             Em    B7           Em 
Well all the usual suspects was assembled 

Em      B7          Em 
Big Joe Mckinny was there 

         Em           B7         Em 
He said "Boys I wanna tell you a story" 

    Em            G         B7 
His eyes were all bloodshot red 

        Em               B7         Am                 
Well he leaned down real low and he told me 

Em             B7       Em 
These were the words he said 

        Em      B7            Em 
"I went down to Saint James Infirmary 

Em         B7   Em 
I heard my baby groan 

        Em                 B7         Em 
She was stretched out on a long white table 

    Em         B7      Em 
She used to be my very own 

           Em          B7      Em 
Oh let her go, let her go, god bless her 

Em       G       B7 
Wherever she may be 

        Em          B7         Am       
She can search that wide world over 

          Em           B7              Em 
She won't never find a meaner man than me" 




       Em  B7                  Em 
When I die bury me in straight lace shoes 

      Em       B7             Em 
A box-back coat and a Stetson hat 
  
          Em            B7               Em 
And put a twenty dollar gold chain on my daddy's old watch 

         Em          B7            Em 
So those boys know I died standing pat 

            Em       B7                Em 
And give me six crap-shooters for pall-bearers 

Em           G              B7 
Let a Chorus girl sing me a song 

      Em      B7        Am 
Put a red hot jazz band on my funeral march 

      Em      B7     Em 
Raise hell as I roll along 

Em            B7       Em 
Roll out your old-time carriage 

      Em            B7       Em 
I say roll out your old-time hat 

           Em               B7          Em 
Oh there's twelve men going down to the graveyard 

    Em        B7      Em 
And eleven are coming back 



         Em        B7         Em 
Well Big Joe, he's one mighty box man 

        Em              G        B7 
But the plague took the woman he loved 

        Em            B7      Am 
Like it took old King Jesse before her 

      Em             B7              Em 
It'll come take your soul 'fore it's done 


Em         B7      Em 
Now that I told my story 

Em           B7      Em 
Pour another shot of booze 

       Em            B7   Em 
And if anyone should ever ask me, yeah yeah 

           Em                B7        Em 
Well I got those Saint James Infirmary Blues, yeah yeah 


Em B7   Em 
I  went down 

Em G    B7 
I  went down 

Em B7   Am 
I  went down 

Em B7   Em 
I  went down
