Well,
Gm D Gm D# D D7
I went down to St. James' Infirmary and I saw my baby there,
Gm D Gm D# D Gm
She was laid out on that long white table, so sweet, so cold, so fair.
Gm D Gm D# D D7
Well, I went up to see the doctor, "She's feeling very low" he said,
Gm D Gm D# D Gm
Well, I went back to see my baby, and good god, she was lying there dead.
[Chorus]
Gm D Gm
So let her go, let her go, God bless her soul.
D# D D7
Wherever she may be.
Gm D Gm
She may search this whole wide world over,
D# D Gm D Gm
And never find a motherfucker like me.
[Instrumental]
Gm D Gm
Well, I went down to Old Joe's Ballroom,
D# D D7
On the corner down by the square.
Gm D Gm
They were serving drinks as usual,
D# D Gm
And all the usual folks were there.
Gm D Gm
Well, to my left stood Old Joe McKennedy,
D# D D7
His eyes were bloodshot red.
Gm D Gm
And he turned to the crowd in front of him,
D# D Gm
And these were the very words that he said.
[Chorus]
Gm D Gm
He said, "Let her go, let her go, God bless her soul
D# D D7
Wherever she may be.
Gm D Gm
She may search this whole wide world over,
D# D Gm D Gm
And never find a motherfucker like me."
[Instrumental]
Gm D Gm
So when I die won't you bury me,
D# D D7
In my high-top Stetson hat.
Gm D Gm
Put a twenty-dollar gold piece on my watch chain,
D# D Gm
So the devil knows I died standing pat.
Gm D Gm
Six gamblers to carry my coffin,
D# D D7
With chorus girls to sing me a song.
Gm D Gm
Put a jazz band on the horse wagon,
D# D Gm D Gm
To raise Hell as we roll along.
[Instrumental]
Gm D Gm
So bring out the rubber tied carridge,
D# D D7
Go ahead and bring out the pony and drive.
Gm D Gm
Twelve men going down to that graveyard,
D# D Gm
Only eleven of them ever coming back.
[Chorus]
Gm D Gm
So let her go, let her go, God bless her soul,
D# D D7
Wherever she may be.
Gm D Gm
She may search this whole wide world over,
D# D Gm D Gm
And never find a motherfucker like me.
[Instrumental]
Gm D Gm
So now, they've heard my story,
D# D D7
Well, let's buy another round of booze.
Gm D Gm
And if anyone ever should ask you,
D# D Gm D Gm
I got the St. James' Infirmary blues.
