[Verse 1]
E B
Take me down to the infirmary
C#m E A F#
lay me down on cotton sheets
E B
put a damp cloth on my forehead
E A E
lay me down, let me sleep
[Chorus]
B C#m E A
I know the whiskey won't soothe my soul
E B
And the morphine won't heal my heart
C#m A
but if you take me down to the infirmary, oh yea
E A E
I won't have to sleep, or drink alone
[Verse 2]
E B
So, take me down to the infirmary
C#m E A F#
Walk a sound that's as blue as her eyes
E B
Oh, sister Magdalene won't you fetch the doctor's flask
E A E
He is going to need a steady, a steady hand
[Solo]
