Rolling Stones - Dear Doctor

A Em A

Oh help me, please doctor, I'm damaged

A D Am

There's a pain where there once was a heart

A

It's sleepin, it's a beatin'

D G

Can't ya please tear it out, and preserve it

A Em A

Right there in that jar?

A Em A

Oh help me, please mama, I'm sick'ning

A D Am

It's today that's the day of the plunge

A

Oh the gal I'm to marry

D G

Is a bow-legged sow

A Em A

I've been soakin' up drink like a sponge

A Em A

"Don't ya worry, get dressed," cried my mother

A D Am

As she plied me with bourbon so sour

A

Pull your socks up, put your suit on

D G

Comb your long hair down,

A Em A

For you will be wed in the hour

A Em A

So help me, please doctor, I'm damaged

A D Am

There's a pain where there once was a heart

A

I'm sleepin, it's a beatin'

D G

Can't ya please take it out, and preserve it

A Em A

Right there in that jar?

Yup!

("Am E A D" Over Solo)

A Em A

Oh help me, please doctor, I'm damaged

A D Am

There's a pain where there once was a heart

A

It's sleepin, it's a beatin'

D G

Can't ya please tear it out, and preserve it

A Em A

Right there in that jar?

A Em A

I was tremblin', as I put on my jacket

A D Am

It had creases as sharp as a knife

A

I put the ring in my pocket

D G

But there was a note

A Em A

And my heart it jumped into my mouth

A Em A

It read, "Darlin', I'm sorry to hurt you.

A D Am

But I have no courage to speak to your face.

A D G

But I'm down in Virginia with your cousin Lou

A

There be no wedding today."

A Em A

So help me, please doctor, I'm damaged

A D Am

You can put back my heart in its hole

A

Oh mama, I'm cryin'

D G

Tears of relief

A Em A

And my pulse is now under control

Enjoy!
