Am Am Am

Am     Am       Am        Am
Here I lie in my hospital bed
D                Am
Tell me, Sister Morphine,
            D               Am
When are you coming round again?
G                                       F
 Oh, and I don't think I can wait that long
C          G                 F   Am
 Oh you see  I'm not that strong

      Am          Am
The scream of the ambulance
    Am            Am
Is sounding in my ears
D                 Am
 Tell me, Sister Morphine,
     D                      Am
How long have I been lying here?
G                          F     F
 What am I doing in this place?
  E                          F     F
Why does the doctor have no face?
G                             F
 Oh, I can crawl across the floor
          Am           F
Can't you see, Sister Morphine,
               Am
I'm trying to score.

       Am                Am
Well it just goes to show things
Am                Am
Are not what they seem
D                Am
 Please, Sister Morphine,
       D                  Am
 Turn my nightmares into dreams.
G                            F      F
 Oh can't you see I'm fading fast?
        Am      F            Am
And the big shot will be my last.

Am           Am
Sweet cousin cocaine,
         Am                    Am
Lay your cool cool hands on my head
D                   Am
Oh c'mon Sister Morphine,
D                  Am
Better make up my bed
     G
Cos you know and I know
        F
In the morning I'll be dead
        Am              F              E
You can sit around and watch all the clean
                      Am
White sheets stained red.
