Take me Down to the Infirmary - Cracker
By Taylor
I figured out "Infirmary" a few minutes ago, it's really very easy.
I don't have the CD here to check the transcription, but if memory
serves, it should be pretty close.
I think it starts:
(Tacet) C G
Take me down, to the infirmary,
Am7 Am F
Lay me down, on cotton sheets.
C G
With a damp cloth, on my forehead,
C F C
Lay me down, let me sleep...
Changover to chorus: C Am7 G
Chorus:
G Am7 Am
I know the wiskey, it won't soothe my soul,
F C
And the morphine won't heal my pain,
Am7 G Am F
But if you take me down to the infirmary, yea.
C F C
I won't have to sleep, or drink alone.
verse:
etc. etc.
{sorry, that's all the lyrics I can remember}
If that Am7 causes trouble for you drop it, it is just cosmetic, but you
have to play it right for it to work. In the verse, it is just one
beat. In the chorus, it gets a few beats, maybe 3.
Chorus changeover:
Just one beat per chord. C Am7 G (hold the G 2 beats, then your in the chorus).
I guess that gives you something, I'm not sure if it is entirely right
though. Have fun with it, and let me know if there are any problems.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official CRACKER tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
