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