Codine. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
On the day I was [Db] _ born, [Cm] the grim [Eb] reaper smiled. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ He said, I'll get you [Db] yet, now [Cm] you _ [Bb] Gemini's child.
_ [Eb] When I was younger with all my [Ab] brothers, you know, I was [Cm] always left [Bb] behind.
_ _ Honey, but [Eb] I caught him.
[Db] Yeah, I passed him [Ab] when I left him. _ _
_ Left with _ _ [Eb] Codine.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And through your _ _ [Db] _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ dreams, _ _
I'm all [Eb] taken. _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Now I seem to _ [Db] fall when [Cm]
I was a [Eb] young girl. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ How my joy and my [Db] happiness, [Cm] you know, all seemed to [Bb]
whirl.
_ But [Eb] then some place, [Ab] honey, sometimes, [Cm] somehow it [Bb] seems,
_ _ _ [Eb] _ Codine [Ab] became the soul I _ _ [Ab] _
feared.
_ _ Just [Eb] imagine, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
honey, through your _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ dreams. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's the reason [Ab] I breathe, honey, [Cm] it's the reason I [Eb] _ walk. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ It's the reason [Ab] I sleep, [Cm] honey, the reason I [Bb] _
talk.
Yeah, [Eb] but soon my [Db] devotion [Ab] will all be _ [Bb] repaid.
_ For [Eb] _ Codine [Db] will kill me, honey, [Ab] that's the bargain. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ That we've [Eb] made. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's _ reality.
_ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
And after I'm [Ab] gone and this sad race [Eb] is run. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Guess I'll go down to [Db] hell where [Cm] my life was [Bb]
begun.
_ _ There'll be [Eb] _ somebody [Db] with a child that [Cm] won't leave me alone.
_ _ Won't [Eb] go down [Db] the way [Ab] to _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ college.
_ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's _ reality. _ _ _
[Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
One more [Eb] time. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And after I'm [Db] gone and the [C]
morning [Eb] sets in. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Don't you mourn what [Db] I was, girl, [Cm] mourn what night it [Bb] been.
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ My [Db] sad heart, [Cm] honey, my tear, it'll feel like.
_ I'm [Eb] on the Codine that I [Db] need, [Ab] that I crave, _ _ _ _ _ that I _ [Eb]
despise. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Dance through your _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
dreams. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ One [Eb] more time. _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Dance through _ your _
_ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ dreams. _ _
_ One [Eb] more time. _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _
