[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 and kids sing a different tune
F C
As they worry about their daddy dying
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
[Bridge]
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 looses Got all the bruises
G F C
Will someone please step in
C
This Irish fool's got a great big heart
F C
He keeps climbing back in to the ring
F C
In the low down circles Where he holds his court
G F C
This man he once was king
[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
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
