Am Dm Am Well I went down to St James Infirmary Am Dm C E To see my baby there Am Dm Am She was laid out on that long white table C E Am So cold, so pale, so fair Am Dm Am Let her go, let her go, God bless her Am Dm C E Where ever she may be Am Dm Am Let her search that whole wide world over C E Am Never find a man as sweet as me Am C E Am She'll never find a man as sweet as me

Am Dm Am Dm C E When I die, won't you bury me in my high top Stetson hat Am Dm Am Put a twenty dollar gold piece on my watch hand C E Am So the gang'll know I died standing pat Am Dm Am I want six crapshooters for pallbearers Am Dm C E Pretty gals sing me a song Am Dm Am I want a jazz band on my hearse wagon C E Am To raise Hell as we roll 'long Am Dm Am Won't you roll out that rubber tarmac Am Dm Am Won't you roll out that rubber tarmac Am Dm Am Thirteen men go down to that old graveyard C E Am There's only twelve of them men coming back Am Dm Am Now that you heard my story Am Dm C E Have another shot of the booze Am Dm Am Anything anybody should ask C E Am I got the St James Infirmary blues C E Am I got the St James Infirmary blues
