By: Flogging Molly
Tabbed by: Shane Cash
Intro:
G/D/C D/G
VERSE 1:
G
Stuck on limbo bridge
      D
Where below me ol' Nick grins
      C	                            G
Then laughs through the chaos of it all
G
Gets up off his chair
        D
Spins a jig to my despair
         C	           D		      G
He can't wait to count the times where I went wrong
G
Underneath the bush
      D
Lay a begger out of luck
       C                   G
On his lips was a taste he forgets
    G                     
His hopes are filled with sand
        D
That he watched fall through his hand
      C           D           G
Every grain was a lifetime of regret
CHORUS:
         D			    G
So go and bow your head and weep
       C	      D		      G 
For your world won't change while you sleep
D			       G
Yeah, go and bow your head and weep
        C			D	     Em 
For the summer that was lost, now is gone
C			  D		G
Yeah, the summer that was lost, now is gone
VERSE 2:
G
Fertile Mrs. Moore
      D
Had thirteen kids but still looked good
       C                   G
Til' her ol' man jumped leave on a ship
    G                     
She never read a book
        D
But by Christ she understood
         C          D              G
That the meanin' of life starts in bed
Chorus

G
Killer Kilbain
        D
Beat me senseless everyday
            C                            G
I hope that bastard is beneath a head of stone
           G                     
Where I'll dance upon his grave 
            D
For all the madness I now crave
          C          D                  G
While the scars that remain are still a curse
G
Stuck on limbo bridge
      D
