Introduction:

 Am 
Evelyn sits by the elevator doors
                     C                                                                                   Am 
It's been 37 years since James died on St. Patrick's day in 1964
         G 
She could not hold it against him
                       Am                                                                             C 
There were times there was nothing she could do but lie in bed all day
                                                   Am                                         G                               F 
Beside a picture of them together, a picture of better days
And just like James, I'll be drinking Irish tonight
                 G 
And the memory of his last work week will be gone forever
 F                           Am                       G 
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight
                   F                                           Am 
If we're never together, if I'm never back again
           G 
Well I swear to god that I'll love you forever
 F                           Am                       G 
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight
       Am                                                                               C 
In all the years that went by she said she'd always love him
                           G                                                               F 
And from the day that he died she never loved again
               F                                           Am 
In his wallet she kept in her nightstand
                                       G                     F 
An A.A. card and a lock of red hair
                                         F                                                       Am 
She kept secrets of pride locked so tight in her heart
                                         G                                             F 
It killed a part of her before the rest was gone.
                             F                                                     Am 
She said, "if I would have known just how things would have ended up
     G                                                   F 
I just would have let myself die."
         F                                                                 Am 
And just like James, I'll be drinking Irish tonight
                 G 
And the memory of his last work week will be gone forever
 F                           Am                       G 
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight
                   F                                           Am 
If we're never together, if I'm never back again
           G 
Well I swear to god that I'll love you forever
 F                           Am                       G 
Evelyn I'm not coming home tonight
 F   Am   G
