[Intro 1]
[Am][E][Am]
[E][Am]

[Verse 1]
I [Am]went down to
St. [E]James Infirm[Am]ary
[A]To see [E]my baby [Am]there,
She was lyin' on [E]a long white t[Am]able,
So sweet, [E]so [Am]cool, so fair.

[Verse 2]
[Am]Went up to see the doctor,
"She's very low," [E]he
said;
Went back to see my baby
Good [Am]God! She's lying there dead. I
[A]went down [E]to old Joe's barroom,
On the corner by the square
They [Am]were serving the drinks as [E]usual,
And the usual crowd [Am]was
[A]there.

[Verse 3]
On my left stood [Am]old Joe McKennedy,
And his [E]eyes were bloodshot
red;
He turned to the crowd around him,
These [Am]are the words he said:
[E]Let her

[Verse 4]
[Am]go, let her [E]go,
God [A]bless [Am]her;
Wherever [E]she [A]may [Am]be
[E][Am]
[A]She may search the [E]wide [Bm]worl[A]d over
[Am]And neve[A]r find[Am] a better
man [E]than me
Oh, when I die, please bury me In my ten dollar Stetson hat;

[Verse 5]
[E]Put a twenty-
dollar gold piece on my
watch chain
So my friends'll know I died
standin' pat.

[Verse 6]
Get six gamblers [E]to carry my coffin
Six chorus girls to [Am]sing me
a song
Put a twenty- piece jazz band on my tail gate
[E]To raise Hell as we [A]go
along

[Verse 7]
Now that's the end [E]of my story
Let's have another [Am]round of booze
And if anyone should ask
you just tell them
I've [E]got the St. James Infirm[Am]ary blues
