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