Punch Drunk Grinning Soul Uke tab by Flogging Molly

Verse 1
Em
It took me everything I had
                   Am
To give all that I could

Walk beside me while I sleep
                          Em
Steer me from the slumber wolf

Tangled forest of the mind
                     Am
Speaks to me of self-despise

Close the window through the pane
                  B7
Hear the siren's serenade...


Verse 2
Em
Could have been the comeback kid
                               Am
The southpaws' legend glove to fill

No shadow boxer but the one
                         B7
A true contender for the crown

Now this punch drunk grinning soul
                      Am          D     G
In its' corner begs 'no more'


Chorus
    D         C
Hey now, stay proud
         D                     G
You were lost on a blue day
    D         C         D      G
Hey now, stay proud
    D         C
Hey now, stay proud
         D                     G
You were lost on a blue day
    D         C
Hey now, stay proud
    D (stacc.)
But we hardly knew ya


Break 1: Em


Verse 3
Em
The chamber echo never speaks
                            Am
The rushin' tide devours my feet

No global warming fills this soul
                            B7
For hell it freezes what it stole

From the beggar's empty plate
                            Am       D    G
To our world that stuffs its' face


Chorus
    D         C
Hey now, stay proud
         D                      G
You were lost on a blue day
    D    C               D      G
Hey now, stay proud
    D         C
Hey now, stay proud
         D                      G
You were lost on a blue day
    D         C          D
Hey now, stay proud
                   G
But we hardly knew ya...


Break 2: G   B7  Em [repeat once]


Bridge
C               Em   G                    C
But these tired eyes are crashin' down on me
Am                    D
While the paint never dries
              G                        Em
On these four walls that now suffocate me
      C              D
But tonight, maybe tonight
            Em
All will be free...


Break 3: Em


Verse 4
Em
Release, unlock this prison door
                    Am
It can't hold me anymore

Serpent lied with sting of tale
                         B7
Hand of reason rusts the nail

Now this punch drunk grinning soul
                       Am         D    G
In its' corner begs 'no more'


Chorus
    D         C
Hey now, stay proud
         D                     G
You were lost on a blue day
    D         C         D      G
Hey now, stay proud
    D         C
Hey now, stay proud
         D                     G
You were lost on a blue day
    D         C         D
Hey now, stay proud
                   Em
But we hardly knew ya...
Em
...we hardly knew ya x 3


Em to end.
