Subject: Lyr/Chords Add: ST. JAMES INFIRMARY
I was surprised to find only one version in the DT. Here's the version I do, and I also use a different chord sequence:
Em B7 Em Em Am Em Em B7 Em G B7 Em
ST JAMES INFIRMARY #2
I went down to St James Infirmary To see my baby there She was stretched on a long white table So cold, so sweet, so fair
Soon the doctor came in to see her And put her in a bed Took one look at her pale white colour And said 'My boy, she's dead'
Let her go, let her go, God bless her Wherever she may be She was all that I ever cared for I loved her tenderly
We will take her out to the graveyard We'll ride a horse-drawn hack There'll be three people goin' out there But only two'll come back
Let her go, let her go, God bless her Wherever she may be She was all that I ever cared for I loved her tenderly
