Band: Dropkick Murphys Song: Barroom Hero Album: Do or Die Tabber: clark@theoddmenout.com Intro: Face down in the gutter won't admit defeat Though his clothes are soiled and black, He's a big, strong man with a childs mind, Don't you take his booze away! C 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 & kids sing a different tune F C As they worry about their daddy dyin', 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 Verse 2: 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 loses got all the bruises G F C Will someone please step in? C Cause this Irish fools got a great big heart F C He keeps climbing back into the ring F C In the low down circles where he holds his court G F C This man he once was king Chorus x2 Bridge: x4 e--------------------------| B--------------------------| G--------------------------| D------------------7-7-----| A-----7-8-10--7-10-----10--| E--8-----------------------| This one goes out to the Boston Punks...
