Am E
F E Am
Am EI was sitting out the back one idle Sunday
Dm AmWatching all the junkies as they slowly drifted by
Am EThe rain was coming down on this faded little town
F E AmAs I poured myself another dirty pint
Am EThe landlord he came by for me this morning
Dm AmHe came for all the money that he said I hadn′t paid
Am EI grabbed him by the throat and cursed his name until he broke
F E AmHe sure as hell won't come round here again
FMother don′t you cry
EI'll be home before the night
F E AmCan leave me lying face down in the drain
Am EThen I went spilling out onto the pavement
Dm AmTalking to the shadows that still slept beside the wall
Am ESaid that I had fought as a soldier in the war
F E AmBut that I'd thrown my medals all away
Am EMaybe I was dreaming when I saw my brothers die
Dm AmMaybe I was high on poppy seed
Am EBut anyhow their blood it seems to linger in the mind
F E AmIt wakes me up I can′t get back to sleep
FMother don′t you cry
Em EI'll be home before the night
F E AmCan leave me lying face down in the drain
Am EMy father he is out and looking for me
Dm AmHe was drinking with the gypsies in a pub just down the road
Am ESee these crooked scars that he left all down my arm
F E AmWith a belt when I didn′t make it home
Am ENow the boys and I are going heavy
Dm AmIf you've any sense then you′d leave us well alone
Am EScreaming at the sky, looking wild in the eye
F E AmAs the whiskey tears the flesh all from our bones
FMother don′t you cry
Em EI'll be home before the night
F E AmCan leave me lying face down in the drain
FMother please don't cry they found me
Ejust the other night
F E AmBleeding out into the drain
