Face-down in the gutter, won't admit defeat
Though his clothes are soiled and black
Be's a big strong man with a child's mind
Don't you take his booze away

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

	repeat this power chord progression throughout the whole song

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

Could he listen- No he won't
That's all she wrote 
Be'll be dead before the daylight shines
But the thoughts and prayers OF A MILLION STRONG
might keep this fool dying

Be's a legend in the bar with every scar
Fights a thousand bigger men
But now he fights and looses 
Got all the bruises
Will someone please step in

This irish fool's got a great big heart
Be keeps climbing back in to the ring 
In the low down circles
Where he holds his court
This man he was once king

Could he listen - NO BE wON'T
That's all she wrote 
Be'll be dead before the daylight shines
But the thoughts and prayers 
Of a million strong might keep this fool from dying

	play this riff during the bridge
