[intro]

Am  C  Am  G


[Verse]
Am  
Evelyn sits by the elevator doors 
          C                                          Am
It's been 37 years since James died on St. Patrick's day in 1964 
    G
She could not hold it against him 
           Am                                       C
There were times there was nothing she could do but lie in bed all day 
                         Am                     G                F
Beside a picture of them together, a picture of better days 


[Chorus]
And just like James, I’ll be drinking Irish tonight
        G
And the memory of his last work week will be gone forever
F              Am            G
Evelyn I’m not coming home tonight 
         F                      Am
If we're never together, if I'm never back again 
     G
Well I swear to god that I'll love you forever 
F              Am            G
Evelyn I’m not coming home tonight 

Am  C  Am  G


[Verse]
   Am                                        C
In all the years that went by she said she'd always love him 
             G                                F
And from the day that he died she never loved again 
       F                      Am
In his wallet she kept in her nightstand 
                   G           F
An A.A. card and a lock of red hair 
                    F                            Am     
She kept secrets of pride locked so tight in her heart 
                    G                       F
It killed a part of her before the rest was gone. 
              F                           Am
She said, "if I would have known just how things would have ended up 
  G                          F
I just would have let myself die."


[Chorus]
    F                                 Am
And just like James, I’ll be drinking Irish tonight
        G
And the memory of his last work week will be gone forever
F              Am            G
Evelyn I’m not coming home tonight 
         F                      Am
If we're never together, if I'm never back again 
     G
Well I swear to god that I'll love you forever 
F              Am            G
Evelyn I’m not coming home tonight 

F  Am  G
