Verse:

Dm
I was down in Amsterdam
Almost hurt myself to death
   C
I pushed myself so hard
              Dm
Just like the redlight girls
     Dm
Well I cried and stopped to smile
I thought that my career is over
         C                               Dm
And the dealer boys they had to bring me water
F               Dm
I stumbled over mountains
F                      Dm
And the shadows of the street
F               Dm
I fell into the river
  A
I cried and and begged for mercy
And I talked to god on the telephone


Chorus:

      F                             C
But I really can't tell you what he told me
              Dm
But it was a lie
      F                             C
No I really can't tell you what he told me
              Dm
But it was a lie


Verse:

     Dm
When I came to in Amsterdam
The hotel showed a movie
     C                               Dm
With Marlon Brando and his friend Pacino
     Dm
Well I thought that this is nice
And I'm sure I can relax now
    C                             Dm
But suddenly the room was full of demons
F                     Dm
I escaped through the window
F                   Dm
Almost ran a mile away
F                Dm
I had nowhere to go
     A
So I cried and I begged for mercy
And I talked to god on the telephone


Chorus:

      F                             C
But I really can't tell you what he told me
              Dm
But it was a lie
      F                             C
No I really can't tell you what he told me
             Dm
But it was a liiie

Bridge:

    Gm
But nothing seems to matter
        Dm
In this lonesome dirty town
    A
But for a short brief moment
  Dm                  D7
I thought she was the one
    Gm
And she and I were fighting
      Dm
About sex, love and TV
       A
That's why I had to get down and talk
To god on the telephone


Chorus:

      F                             C
But I really can't tell you what he told me
              Dm
But it was a lie
      F                             C
No I really can't tell you what he told me
             Dm
But it was a li-i-ie

End.
