Oh you see I'm not that strong
Am Am7 Am
The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
D2 Am
Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here?
G F
What am I doing in this place?

Why does the doctor have no face?

Oh, I can crawl across the floor
Am F Am
Can't you see, Sister Morphine, I'm trying to score.

Well it just goes to show things are not what they seem-

Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams.

Oh can't you see I'm fading fast?

And the big shot will be my last.

Sweet cousin cocaine, lay your cool cool hands on my head
