Subject: Chords Add: ST. JAMES INFIRMARY
I found this setting here (click), but it's not the way I play it. More Like that, stolen to Dave Van Ronk:

(Am)I went down to (E7)old Joe's (Am) barroom (E7),
(Am)On the corner (F) by the (E7) square
(Am)They were serving (E7) the drinks as (F) usual (D),
(F) And the usual (D) crowd was there.

Note: I do not play the third (not sure if this word's correct; "tierce" in french) on the D chord.
