Song

THAT WOMAN'S GOT ME DRINKING - by Shane MacGowan

from the album "The Snake"
The main chords (E D A) are played very quickly and the lyrics don't really
follow the chords per se, and are sung over them. So you should probably listen
to the album for the correct timing. But I'll try to place them as best I can.
That Woman's Got Me Drinking - as performed by Shane MacGowan and The Popes
Bass intro (E E D A) X 4
Guitar (E E D A) X 8
For seven long years  
She helped me spend my dough 
Now I take her out 
She don't wanna know 
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
(E E D A) X 2
B (rest)
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin
(E E D A) X 4
That woman's got me drinking
We used to have some fun
Now shrinks and astrologers
Have got me on the run
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin
(E E D A) X 4
She said she'd always love me
She said I was the one
Now look at the way she treats me
Just like a piece of scum
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin
(E E D A) X 4
Solo (over verse and chorus)
If I had the guts to do it
I'd take the long goodbye
Instead I'll love her long and hard
And love her 'til I die
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin
Bottle of gin, bottle of gin, bottle of gin,
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
eight, nine, ten bottles of gin
