Am F G
Keep their spirits up Frank, all for some so some for all,
Am F G
The only spirits here man are hangin’ off the wall,
Am F G
Yeah, you know as well as I do, that we don’t serve up cheer,
Am F G
When they come for anaesthetics and it’s been this way for years,

2
F
They empty out their glasses,

Fill ‘em up with tears,
E
One for the road, one for the road,
G
That leads them right back here,

3
Am G
To rain on their troubles,
Am G
Wash ‘em down deep,
F C
And play in the puddle,
Em Am
Till they’re fast asleep.

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.
