[Verse 1]
Well he [A]was nearly
died
When he re[G]turned to the town
where he'd come [D]from[A]
He's brown-bagging it it tonight be
[G]hind some tav[D]ern[A]
Somebody wrecked his life
And I'll bet [G]you it was
his [D]darling[A]
Somebody wrecked his life
And I'll bet [G]you it was his [D]darling
So he drank like a [A]river when the
[G]wedding bells rang
[D]Watched from [A]the steeple
as the [G]choir girls sang
[D]Died in the [A]gutter on his
[G]feet and his hands
Same [D]hands that [A]once touched
her [D]face[A][G]
[D][A][G]
[D][A]
Well he was nearly died
When he re[G]turned to the town
he'd [D]come [A]from
He's hanging out drinking beer
with [G]his brother-in-law
He [D]He [A]He was a drinker at night
And in the morn[G]ing he was un[D]nerving[A]
He was a drinker for a time
[G]The day that he lost [D]his darling
So he drank like a [A]river when the
[G]wedding bells rang
[D]Watched from [A]the steeple
as [G]the choir girls sang
[D]Died in the [A]gutter on his
[G]feet and his hands
Same [D]hands that [A]once touched her [D]face

So he drank like a [A]river when the

[D]Watched from [A]the steeple
as the [G]choir girls sang
[D]Died in the [A]gutter on his
[G]feet and his hands
Same [D]hands that once [A]touched
her [D]face
