He stopped the clock to Mrs. Murphy couldn't see the time And at a quarter after 2 we argued it was 9 Chorus Solo (x2): E|---------------------------------------------------------------7-9-7-7-7- B|-7-5-----7-9-10-7-9-10-9-9-7-9-10-9-9--7-5-----7-9-10-9-7-9-10----------- G|-----8-6-----------------------------------8-6--------------------------- D|------------------------------------------------------------------------- A|------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|------------------------------------------------------------------------- This isn't totally correct but it's the best I could get. Well they stopped the hearse on George Street outside some damn saloon They all went in at half past 8 and staggered out at noon They went up to the graveyard so holy and sublime Found out when they got there they left the corpse behind Chorus Verse 1 Chorus
