[Verse 1]
G G
I saw a man at the close of day
C D7
Standing round the grocery door
C G
His eyes were sunk, his lips were parched
D7 G
And I viewed him o'er and o'er.
[Verse 2]
G
His lit-tle son stood by his side
C D7
And unto him he said
C G
Oh Father, Mother's sick at home
D7 G
And sister cries fer bread
[Verse 3]
G
He turned around, went in at the door
C D7
He staggered up to the bar
C G
And faultering unto the landlord said
D7 G
Just give me one glass more.
[Verse 4]
G
A year or so I passed thereby
C D7
And a crowd stood round the door
C G
I asked the reason, one replied,
D7 G
Why, the drunkard is no more.
[Verse 5]
G
Just then a hearse moved slowly ["slow-lie"] by
C D7
No wife or children near
C G
They'd gone before this vile murder
D7 G
And left this world of care.
[Verse 6]
G
Come all you jolly dram drinkers
C D7
By this a warning take
C G
And quit the overflowing bowl
D7 G
Before it is too late.
