pints of guinness make you strong chords (by against me!)

Found at: pints of guinness make you strong chords by against me!                Am  C  Am  G

Am
Evelyn sits by the elevator doors
          C                                          Am
It's been 37 years since James died on St. Patrick's day in 1964
    G
She could not hold it against him
           Am                                       C
There were times there was nothing she could do but lie in bed all day
                         Am                     G                F
Beside a picture of them together, a picture of better days


And just like James, I'll be drinking Irish tonight
        G
And the memory of his last work week will be gone forever
F              Am            G
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight
         F                      Am
If we're never together, if I'm never back again
     G
Well I swear to god that I'll love you forever
F              Am            G
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight

Am  C  Am  G

   Am                                        C
In all the years that went by she said she'd always love him
             G                                F
And from the day that he died she never loved again
       F                      Am
In his wallet she kept in her nightstand
                   G           F
An A.A. card and a lock of red hair
                    F                            Am     
She kept secrets of pride locked so tight in her heart
                    G                       F
It killed a part of her before the rest was gone.
              F                           Am
She said, "if I would have known just how things would have ended up
  G                          F
I just would have let myself die."

    F                                 Am
And just like James, I'll be drinking Irish tonight
        G
And the memory of his last work week will be gone forever
F              Am            G
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight
         F                      Am
If we're never together, if I'm never back again
     G
Well I swear to god that I'll love you forever
F              Am            G
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight
