[Verse 1]
      C
We've gathered here to bid adieu

   G
Us Boston boys, alas are few

D
Some from crosstown, some from the coast

   G
To give our skipper one last toast

      C
We'll pour the good stuff round his casket

G
Drop some coin into the basket

D
Bow our heads and praise the Lord

D
Then rouse ourselves and strike a chord...
[Chorus]
      C
Let's raise a glass and lift it up

     G
Then sip from Jimmy Collins' cup

    Em
And hail the lads that won the crown

     D
That brought victory to our ground

      C
Let's raise a glass and lift it up

     G
Then sip from Jimmy Collins' cup

    D
And hail the lads that won the crown

     G
While turning baseball upside down

   C                G                D                G

[Verse 2]
   C
We hit 'em hard, we hit 'em clean

    G
The pitching of Big Bill Dineen

     D
Some legged a bunt, some hit them out

  G
Remember old Buck Freeman's clouts

      C
We'll sing of Candy, Cy and Freddy

G
Patsy Dougherty, Broadway Hobe

D
Chick, and Jack O'Brein

D
Honus Wagner sat there crying
[Chorus]
      C
Let's raise a glass and lift it up

     G
Then sip from Jimmy Collins' cup

    Em
And hail the lads that won the crown

     D
That brought victory to our ground

      C
Let's raise a glass and lift it up

     G
Then sip from Jimmy Collins' cup

    D
And hail the lads that won the crown

While turning baseball upside down
C G D G C G D G [Verse 3]
    C
Our days with you indeed were great

    G
And now that you have crossed the plate

    Em
And scored that final run of life

      D
We'll hug your kids and kiss your wife

    C
And tell of how you played the game

    G
And led us all to wealth and fame

     D
We'll lift our heads with one loud voice

D
Pay homage to "The People's Choice"
[Chorus]
      C
Let's raise a glass and lift it up

[Outro]
C        G         D
Oh, ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh,

G
Lets raise a glass and lift it up

C        G         D
Oh, ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh
