Pints of Guinness Make You Strong Against Me!
<i></i>Am C Am G
[Am]Evelyn sits by the elevator doors
It's been [C]37 years since James died on St. Patrick's [Am]day in 1964
She [G]could not hold it against him
There were [Am]times there was nothing she could do but [C]lie in bed all day
Beside a picture of them [Am]together, a picture of [G]better days [F]
And just like James, I'll be drinking Irish tonight
And the [G]memory of his last work week will be gone forever
[F]Evelyn I'm not [Am]coming home to[G]night
If we're [F]never together, if I'm [Am]never back again
Well [G]I swear to god that I'll love you forever
[F]Evelyn I'm not [Am]coming home to[G]night
[Am] [C] [Am] [G]
In [Am]all the years that went by she said she'd [C]always love him
And from the [G]day that he died she never loved [F]again
In his [F]wallet she kept in her [Am]nightstand
An A.A. card and a [G]lock of red [F]hair
She kept secrets of [F]pride locked so tight in her [Am]heart
It killed a part of [G]her before the rest was [F]gone.
She said, "if [F]I would have known just how [Am]things would have ended up
I [G]just would have let myself [F]die."
And [F]just like James, I'll be drinking [Am]Irish tonight
And the [G]memory of his last work week will be gone forever
[F]Evelyn I'm not [Am]coming home to[G]night
If we're [F]never together, if I'm [Am]never back again
Well [G]I swear to god that I'll love you forever
[F]Evelyn I'm not [Am]coming home to[G]night
[F] [Am] [G]
