Fall into [Cm] the desert as thirsty [Eb] as [C] you are
Take a smile and cut your mouth and [Bb] drown [Eb] in [C]
alcohol
Stone the truth that's [Bb] lying [G] beneath the [Eb] [C]
riverbed
Squint yourself and drink the water [Bb] that flows below [C] her head
[Eb] [C] Oh, [G]
[Eb] [F] there [C] she [G] goes
[C] [F] Out in the
[Eb] sunshine, [F] sun [Eb] is mine, [F] sun [Eb] is mine
[Gm] I've [C]
stopped [Bb] my love today, [Ab] [Eb] would you cry for me?
[F] [C]
I've lost [Bb] my head again, [Ab] [Eb] would you laugh for me?
[F] [C] Close your eyes [Eb] and bow your head, [Bb] I [Eb] need a little [C] sympathy
Fear is strong [Eb] as for your [Bb] woman [Eb] who [C] wills
Kill yourself [Eb] and free yourself and [Bb] kill [Eb] your remaining [C] love
And if you live, you [Eb] can fall to pieces [Bb] and suffer [Eb] with my [C] ghost
I've stopped my [Bb] love today, [Ab] [Eb] would you cry for me?
[F] [C]
I've lost my [Bb] head again, [Ab] [Eb] would you laugh for me?

[C] [Eb]
[Gb] [C] [Cm]
me?
[Eb] [Gb] [F] Fall [C] [Eb] into [Bb] the desert as desperate [Eb] as [C] you are
The moon is clear, [Eb] picture [C] heaven [Bb] below, the [Eb] little picture [C] of God
[Eb] [F] Oh, [G]
there [Eb] [F] she [G]
goes
[C] Out [Eb] in the sunshine, [F] sun [Eb] is mine, [F] sun [Eb] is mine
[Gm] [C]
I've stopped my [Bb] love today, [Ab] would you [Bb] cry for [F] me?

I've left [Bb] the sand, [Ab] just a [Eb]
burden in my [F] hand
[C] I've lost my [Bb] head again, [Ab] [Eb] would you laugh for [F] me?
[Ab] Would you [Eb] laugh [Gb] for me?
