The Tender Mick Flannery
<i></i>1
[Am]Keep their spirits up Frank, all for so[F]me so some for a[G]ll,
The on[Am]ly spirits here man are ha[F]ngin' off the wa[G]ll,
Yeah, you kn[Am]ow as well as I do, that w[F]e don't serve up ch[G]eer,
When t[Am]hey come for anaesthetics and it's [F]been this way for y[G]ears,
[2]
They em[F]pty out their glasses,#
Fill 'em up with tears,
One fo[G]r the road, one for the road,
That leads them right back here,
[3]
To ra[Am]in on their tr[G]oubles,
W[Am]ash 'em down d[G]eep,
And p[F]lay in the pu[C]ddle,
Till they're f[Em]ast asl[Am]eep.
[1]Now Joe he lost his woman to some big-shot business man.
He said I trusted love not money and now look where I am.
You've had enough Joe, you gotta go now.
You've too much Joe, I send you home now.
[2]And he says please Frank, please Frank.
But I am just the tender, I don't give counsel I don't get close,
I'm on no rescue mission man, I'm in no rescue boat,
[3]I'm here to make money,
Wages plus tips,
For pouring water
Into sinking ships.
