Like every Tossers song it's on capo five but I'll write it out for you so you can play it.
The entire song is just a "C" chord and an "F" chord.
[Intro]
C F C F C F
[Verse 1]
C F C F
I met her up on Leeson Street of a Tuesday afternoon
C F C F
In Summer's fallen colours, sulking back to school
C F C F
I asked her would she linger, She asked me would i stay
C F C F
Would i keep a girl in company, drinking in the day?
[Chorus]
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
Drinking... not thinking
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
We'll go drinking in the day
[Verse 2]
C F C F
She was almost a woman, she was going on sixteen
C F C F
She asked me to go walking, In Saint Stephen's Green
C F C F
She said I love the sunshine, and to hear the children play.
C F C F
But I won't be distracted when I'm drinking in the day.
[Verse 3]
C F C F
With her flashing eyes and milk white lies she looked like a song
C F C F
Like the ghost of a woman that first made me go wrong
C F C F
She said I'll have a drink with you I said you'll have to pay
C F C F
For a comprehensive education, Drinking in the day
[Chorus]
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
Drinking... not thinking
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
We'll go drinking in the day
[Verse 4]
C F C F
If her mother could have seen us on that bright November day
C F C F
Botticelli and his angel perambulating Ormand Quay
C F C F
A drunken blessed virgin, me rhetorious and gay
C F C F
Bestowing ancient wisdom as to what made me this way
[Verse 5]
C F C F
Deny your friends and family, To serve you must betray
C F C F
Break and enter heaven, Steal but never save
C F C F
Squander every penny, Empty every heart
C F C F
Travel every darkened road, Never finish what you start
C F C F
Always talk to strangers, Make love with whom you may
C F C F
For God will find good company, for your drinking in the day
[Chorus]
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
Drinking... not thinking
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
We'll go drinking in the day
[Verse 6]
C F C F
So spend your youth on poetry, and spend your cash at play
C F C F
Each line upon my face is for a girl who went away
C F C F
A kiss, a song, are fleeting things and fame will always stray
C F C F
So I'll tell the truth, the best spent youth, is the one you give away
[Chorus]
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
Drinking... not thinking
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
We'll go drinking in the day
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
Drinking... not thinking
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
We'll go drinking in the day
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
Drinking... not thinking
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
We'll go drinking in the day
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
Drinking... not thinking
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
We'll go drinking in the day
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
Drinking... not thinking
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
We'll go drinking in the day
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
Drinking... not thinking
C F
Drinking, drinking
C F
We'll go drinking in the day
