     E                            A                      E                       B7
When these shoes were new it was "how do you do", it was whiskey and telling our tales
         E                        A                       E                             B7
And when my shirt was clean I was there to be seen, I had clean eyes and my smile never failed

All of my brothers that I met on the way, they were drinking by night, they were drinking by day
       A          E             A             E
Ah res-tore to my eyes what was clear and was bright
          E           B7          A            E           B7          E
And honey take me out drinking to-night, honey take me out drinking to-night

Blue-bells and matches and stains on the table, the sweet smell of the luscious Wood-bine
    E                 A                   E                       B7
"Ah Mister McEwen you will be my ruin", I say, but I don't really mind

Chorus

C#m       G#m             A          E              C#m         G#m              A           B7
All of my brothers that I met on the way, they were drinking by night, they were drinking by day
       A          E             A             E
Ah res-tore to my eyes what was clear and was bright
          E           B7          A            E           B7          E
And honey take me out drinking to-night, honey take me out drinking to-night

Oh I'm still smiling through, though there's stains on my shoes, the right is heavy and the left it is light
            E                     A
And if it's left up to you then I know what you'd do
      E           B7          A            E           B7          E

Honey take me out drinking to-night, honey take me out drinking to-night, honey take me out drinking to-night
