Rye Whiskey Joe

(D)   G       D             Em            Em7
In an old hobo jungle on the south side of town,
         C                        D
All my friends settled down for a meal
      G          D          Em          Em7
With two cans of bacon and an old loaf of bread
    C                   D
Anything anybody could steal
       Em                Bm
And a bottle of burgundy found its way 'round
       Em                D
For tonight everybody was low
          G          D       Em
From the passing of Joseph McSweeney
      C             D            G D7
Everyone called him Rye Whiskey Joe
    G    D          Em
Ch: Oh, Rye Whiskey Joe,
Em7    C                      D
There's happiness somewhere for you,
G   D          Em
Oh, Rye Whiskey Joe,
Em7   C       D          C
Somewhere out there in the blue
