Chords

[Intro] F [Verse]
     Bb                       Eb            F
I've seen a lot of sights and traveled many miles

Bb                           Ebm            Eb
Shook a thousand hands and seen my share of smiles

Bb                                 Eb                F
I've caused some great concern and told one too many lies

Bb                                    F
And now I see the world through these sad, old, jaded eyes

Bb                             Eb
So what if I threw a party and all my friends were there?

Bb                         F
Acquaintances, relatives, the girls who never cared

Bb                                         Eb
You'll have a host of rowdy hooligans in a big line out the door

F
Side by side with Sister Barbara, Chief Wells and Bobby 'Orr

Bb
I'd invite the Flannigans

Eb
Replace the window you smashed out

Bb                           F
I'd apologize the Sluggo for pissing on his couch

Bb                           Eb
I'll see Mrs. McAuliffe and so many others soon

F
Then I'll say I'm sorry for what I did sleepwalking in her room

Bb                              Eb
So what if I threw a party and invited Mayor Menino?

Bb
He'd tell you to get a permit

F
Well this time Tom I don't think so

Bb
It's a neighborhood reunion

Eb
But now we'd get along

F
Van Morrison would be there and he'd sing me one last song

Bb                                    Eb
With a backup band of bass players to keep us up all night

Bb
Three handsome four string troubadours

F
And Newton's own Fat Mike

Bb                                    Eb
I'll be in the can having a smoke with Garv and Johnny Fitz

F
But there's a back up in the bathroom

F
Cause the Badger's got the shits
[Chorus]
Bb                               Eb
You may bury me with an enemy in Mount Calvary

Bb                              F
You can stack me on a pyre and soak me down with whiskey

Bb                                 Eb
Roast me to a blackened crisp and throw me in a pile

F
I could really give a shit - I'm going out in style

Bb                            Eb
You can take my urn to Fenway spread my ashes all about

Bb              
Or you can bring me down to Wolly Beach

F
And dump the sucker out

Bb                            Eb          
Burn me to a rotten crisp and toast me for a while

F
I could really give a shit - I'm going out in style
[Bridge]
Bb
Make me up dress me up

Eb
Feed me a big old shot

Bb
Of embalming fluid highballs

F
So I don't start to rot

Bb
Now take me to McGreevy's

Eb
I wanna buy one final round

F
That cheap prick would peel an orange in his pocket

F
Then hurry up and suck 'em down

Bb
If there's a god the girls you loved

Eb
Will all come walking through the door

Bb                                      F
Maybe they'll feeld bad for me and this stiff will finally score

Bb
You've got the bed already

Eb
And the nerve and courage too

F
Cause I've be slugging from

F
A stash of Desi Queally's 1980s

F
Bathtub brew
[Chorus]
Bb                               Eb
You may bury me with an enemy in Mount Calvary

Bb                              F
You can stack me on a pyre and soak me down with whiskey

Bb                                 Eb
Roast me to a blackened crisp and throw me in a pile

F
I could really give a shit - I'm going out in style

Bb                            Eb
You can take my urn to Fenway spread my ashes all about

Bb              
Or you can bring me down to Wolly Beach

F
And dump the sucker out

Bb                            Eb          
Burn me to a rotten crisp and toast me for a while

F
I could really give a shit - I'm going out in style
Spread my ashes all about Dump the sucker out Toast me for a while I'm going out in style
