Intro
Dm A7 Dm Dm Gm Dm A7 Dm A7 Dm Bb7 A7 Dm A7
Dm A7 Dm
It was down in old Joe's bar-room,
Dm Gm Dm A7
On the corner by the square
Dm A7 Dm
The drinks were served as usual
Bb7 A7 Dm A7
And the usual crowd were there
Dm A7 Dm
On my left stood big Joe McKennedy
Dm Gm Dm A7
His eyes were bloodshot red
Dm A7 Dm
He turned to the crowd around him
Bb7 A7 Dm A7
These were the very words he said
Dm A7 Dm
I went down to St. James Infirmary
Dm Gm Dm A7
To see my baby there;
Dm A7 Dm
She was stretched out on a long, white table
Bb7 A7 Dm A7
So pale, so cold, so fair
Chorus
Dm A7 Dm
Let her go, let her go, god bless her
Dm Gm Dm A7
Wherever she may be
Dm A7 Dm
She may search this whole world over
Bb7 A7 Dm A7
And never find a man as sweet as me
Dm A7 Dm
When I die please bury me
Dm Gm Dm A7
In my high-top Stetson hat
Dm A7 Dm
Put a twenty-dollar gold piece on my watch chain
Bb7 A7 Dm A7
So the gang'll know I died standing pat
Dm A7 Dm
I wat six crap shooters for pall bearers
Dm Gm Dm A7
Six pretty girls to sing me a song
Dm A7 Dm
Put a jazz band on my hearse wagon
Bb7 A7 Dm A7
To raise hell as we stroll along
Dm A7 Dm
And now that you have heard my story
Dm Gm Dm A7
I'll have another shot of booze;
Dm A7 Dm
And if anybody happens to ask you
Bb7 A7 Dm A7 Dm
I've got the St. James Infirmary blues
