Flogging Molly - The Likes of You Again

Intro:
There are other guitar parts and a mandolin part going on, but I didn't tab

Verse 1

D                  G                  D              A
Wednesday night is mornin' now as I'm walking in the rain
D                   G                  G       A    D
Birds are screaming in my ear, they're driving me insane
D                   G            D                      A
Half the clouds are empty so the sun bursts through the sky
    D            G                G      A      D
The puddles show reflections of a face about to die
D               G            D               A
Just around the corner I was going round the bend
  D          G                   G       A       D
I ran into a staggerin' fool who said he knew my name
   D                G               D             A
He poured himself a whiskey and his face began to glow
    D              G             G       A     D
Two men without an answer like a dog without a bone


Pre-chorus 1:

Bm
Bringin in the new year as the bells began to ring
A
Fats is in the corner, she's just about to sing
Bm
Time to get another before the final shout
F#/Gb
You should have heard him roarin when they dragged the bugger out

Chorus:

          G             A              D  G  D  A  D  G  G A D
And we'll never see the likes of you again

Verse 2:

D               G                D               A
Jimbo came from slummin' town, a cold and dreary place
   D             G                  G         A      D
To summerland he found himself, the sun shone on his face
D                 G             D                  A
Met a girl called Minnie Pearl, swore she'd always be his girl
D            G              G        A     D
Happily ever after till the tide ran out again
D                G                D                  A
Pour me all your sorrows and I'll drink till you are dry
     D               G                   G       A        D
I'll love you in the mornin, Christ I'll love ya till you die
     D              G                     D               A
I'll never leave so never grieve, I'll be back before you know
    D            G             G     A       D
But Jimbo fell into a well and never rambled home


Pre-chorus 2:

Bm
Carried all his troubles in an unforgivin bag
A
Back and forth through painted brick the colours all seemed bland
Bm
I've traveled all these years, he said to only get this far
F#/Gb
So he crossed the street, found a seat, his home is now a bar

Chorus:

          G             A            D    G   D   A
And we'll never see the likes of you again
         G             A             D  G  D  A  D  G  G A D
No we'll never see the likes of you again

Bridge (no chords, drums, fiddle, mandolin, at first)

There must be more to life than this poxie life
All the agro, all the pain

Bm                D
So he disappeared  into his final beer
G                              A
But the glass was empty once again, again, again...

Break (guitar and fiddle)

Verse 3:

D             G            D               A
Woke up in an awful state, dreamt I was at Peter's gate
D              G             G           A       D
Beggin for his mercy and the crimes that were at hand
D              G              D              A
Told me he was much amused to see the life I had abused
D              G               G      A        D
Best be on the way, but have a swig before you go
