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