Dropkick Murphys - Barroom Heroes Chords

[Verse 1]

C
He's been at it for years Drinkin' balls and beer 
          F             C
He's a hero to most he meets 
F                                     C
But inside he cries Black, swollen eyes 
G                   F           C       
This man he sheds no tears 


             C
Now his wife and kids sing a different tune 
            F                                 C
As they worry about their daddy dying
             F                           C
But this arrogant fool breaks every rule
         G               F            C
It'll be nothing but pride that kills him


[Chorus]

              F                                   C
Could he listen- No he won't That's all she wrote 
            G                                 C
He'll be dead before the daylight shines
            F                                    C
But the thoughts and prayers of a million strong
         G            F           C
Might keep this fool from dying


[Bridge]

          C
He's a legend in the bar with every scar
             F                      C
Fights a thousand bigger men
                 F                               C
But now he fights and looses Got all the bruises
      G            F                C
Will someone please step in
       C
This Irish fool's got a great big heart
               F                               C
He keeps climbing back in to the ring 
         F                                      C
In the low down circles Where he holds his court

       G         F             C
This man he once was king


[Chorus]

F                                   C
Could he listen- No he won't That's all she wrote 
            G                                 C
He'll be dead before the daylight shines
            F                                    C
But the thoughts and prayers of a million strong
         G            F           C
Might keep this fool from dying
F                                   C
Could he listen- No he won't That's all she wrote 
            G                                 C
He'll be dead before the daylight shines
            F                                    C
But the thoughts and prayers of a million strong
         G            F           C
Might keep this fool from dying
