Before the bell would ring
            F               C
  he had a way like Errol Flynn,
           E              F          C     G
  as he sauntered to the ring with a sheet on.
         C                     E
But the late rounds scared the girl,
          F                             C
  heaven knows she thought the world of Lou,
          E               F             C    G
  it was hard to see him swaying in the neon.
 C             E
Joey was a no-one,
             F                 C
  just some big dumb kid from Flushing.
           E                F            C     G
  He had a face like a ugly bull, always pouting.
       C             E
He hit Louie kind of low
         F               C
  and he stumbled on the ropes
         E                   F        C   G
  as the bookies blocked the rows, shouting.

The blows were hard and loud,
          F                C
  he could hardly hear the crowd
         E                    F                C      G
  in the bleachers where they howled, the were cheering.
    C             E
I remenber in the eight,
         F                   C
  it was clear that Lou was fading,
       E                   F          C     G
  when somthing caught his eye by the ceiling.
   C              E
He saw her as she spoke
              F             C
  thought the shifty yelliw smoke,
            E              F            C    G
  she said: Louie you look bad, are you dying?
    C                E
But Louie could not answer,
      F                        C
  his eyes were cast up to the rafters,
           E           F      C    G
  and they slowly sealed in silence.
