The Pogues - Streams of Whiskey: chords

      D                    G                D
Last night as I slept I dreamed I met with Behan
                                G
I shook him by the hand and we passed the time of
 A
day
      D                               G
When questioned on his views on the crux of
         D
life's philosophies
    D                  G        A               D
He had but these few clear and simple words to say

Chorus:
      D           G D
I am going, I am going
                                G A
Any which way the wind may be blowing
      D           G D
I am going, I am going
                   G           A D
Where streams of whiskey are flowing

I have cursed, bled and sworn, jumped bail and
landed up in jail
Life has often tried to stretch me, but the rope
always went slack
And now that I've a pile, I'll go down to the
Chelsea
I'll walk in on my feet, but I'll leave there
on my back

Chorus:
Because I'm going, I am going
Any which way the wind may be blowing
I am going, I am going
Where streams of whiskey are flowing (yeah!)

Oh, the words that he spoke seemed the wisest
of philosophies
There's nothing ever gained by a wet thing
called a tear
When the world is too dark and I need the
light inside of me
I'll walk into the bar and drink fifteen
pints of beer

Chorus:
Because I'm going, I am going
Any which way the wind may be blowing
I am going, I am going
Where streams of whiskey are flowing

I am going, I am going
Any which way the wind may be blowing
I am going, I am going
Where streams of whiskey are flowing

Where streams of whiskey are flowing
Where streams of whiskey are flowing
