G                                    C                  G
If I had a dollar now for every drink I had 
 G                                                      D                   G
I'd be so f*cking wealthy and things wouldn't be so bad 
G                                                         C                        G
but I drank down every penny in just seven drunken nights 
G                                                       D                     G
and called out for another round of seven drunken pints

D                                      G
Because is no time left to lose
C                                      G
It's nearly time for closing
 D                                       G
and we're running out of booze
C                                            G
So have a drink ya bastards
D                                              G
Because the morning' s nearly here
C                                      G
The open Road's before us
D                                         G
So let's have another beer


If I could've found a girl could drink as much as me
I take her off to be my wife and live so happily 
but I've never known such girl to walk upon this land
I guess it's heaven's plan for me to be a single man

Chorus
Em                             G                  D                         G
And sometimes well I lie awake at night I feel no pain
Em                              G                    D                       G
This banging in my head, the stinging of the shame
Em                           G                     D                            G
I hear the angels calling me up on their lofty heights
C                                   G                 D                            D7
But they don't sing a lullaby they sing me my last rites, sing me my last rights,
D7
Sing me my last rights!


I've drunk me fill of piss and swill too many times to care
And sometimes when I stagger home I pass out on the stair
I like my women slightly large, my Whisky always neat
And sometimes in the summer I like to pass out in the street

Chorus
