[Intro]
Am C Am G
[Verse]
Am Evelyn sits by the elevator doors C Am It's been 37 years since James died on St. Patrick's day in 1964 G She could not hold it against him Am C There were times there was nothing she could do but lie in bed all day Am G F Beside a picture of them together, a picture of better days
[Chorus]
And just like James, I’ll be drinking Irish tonight
G And the memory of his last work week will be gone forever F Am G Evelyn I’m not coming home tonight F Am If we're never together, if I'm never back again G Well I swear to god that I'll love you forever F Am G Evelyn I’m not coming home tonight
Am C Am G
[Verse]
Am C In all the years that went by she said she'd always love him G F And from the day that he died she never loved again F Am In his wallet she kept in her nightstand G F An A.A. card and a lock of red hair F Am She kept secrets of pride locked so tight in her heart G F It killed a part of her before the rest was gone. F Am She said, "if I would have known just how things would have ended up G F I just would have let myself die."
[Chorus]
F Am And just like James, I’ll be drinking Irish tonight G And the memory of his last work week will be gone forever F Am G Evelyn I’m not coming home tonight F Am If we're never together, if I'm never back again G Well I swear to god that I'll love you forever F Am G Evelyn I’m not coming home tonight
