Am Here is a story about a sinner, He used to be a winner who enjoyed a life of prominence and E/B position, But the pressures at the office and his socialite engagements, Am And his selfish wife's fanatical ambition, A It turned him to the booze, And he got mixed up with a floosie Dm And she led him to a life of indecision. Am The floosie made him spend his dole She left him lying on Skid Row E7 Am E7 Am A drunken lag in some Salvation Army Mission. E7 It's such a shame. Chorus: A Dm Oh demon alcohol, G C Sad memories I cannot recall, Am Dm Who thought I would say, E7 Am Damn it all, blow it all, A Dm Oh demon alcohol, G C Memories I can't recall, Am Dm E7 Am E7 Am Who thought I would fall a slave to demon alcohol. G C Sad memories I can't recall, Am Dm E7 Am E7 Am Who thought I would fall a slave to demon alcohol. Barley wine, pink gin He'll drink anything Port, pernod or tequila Rum, scotch, vodka on the rocks As long as all his troubles disappeared But he messed up his life when he beat up his wife And the floosie's gone and found another sucker She's gonna turn him on to drink She's gonna lead him to the brink And when his money's gone She'll leave him in the gutter It's such a shame Chorus: Oh demon alcohol Sad memories I can't recall Who thought I would fall Damn it all, low, low Sad memories I can't recall Who thought I would fall A slave to demon alcohol | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Chords fingeringsA Am B C Dm E E7 G |
