Hopes and dreams of heavens 10.000 whores


Am                                                                Em
When I spend too much time alone, I get    afraid
Am                                                            Em
Afraid that you’re gonna leave me          breathing
Am                                                             Em
Afraid of what they’d throw in the            way
Am                                                             Em
In the way of something simple like         leaving
Am                                                               Em
“Forgive me if you can,” said the sad         cashier,
Am                                                               Em
“For the dollars and cents our love has       become.
Am                                                        Em
I didn’t sell you anything my                dear
Am                                                                                     Em
You were a scarecrow looking for a bonfire to sleep         on.”

Am                                                                   Em
“Believe me if you can,” said the pile of        bones,
Am                                                             Em
“I think that this is all there is left to         see.
Am                                                          Em
Just waiting for my prescription to        come
Am                                                                         Em
‘Cause every second in hell dissolves more of      me.”

Am                             G                       Em              Bm
And all of heaven’s    ten thousand     whores
Am                             G                        Em              Bm

Are on a party            line to his big     toe
Am                                     G                        Em              Bm
Singing ooh I just can’t     do it         any     more
Am                            G                      Em                      Bm
So don’t bother        asking –now                 you          know


Am                          G                            Em           Bm
Don’t bother            me with little        things
Am                          G                           Em           Bm
Pennies, nickels,     quarters, and         dimes
Am                          G                          Em                  Bm
They’ve all taken     me as far as        I’m   gonna      go
Am                            G                      Em                           Bm
So don’t bother        asking –now                     you         know

Believe me if you can
