Dear Doctor Chords

(ver. 2)
Rolling Stones
Chorus 1

E
Oh help me, please doctor, I'm damaged
E                                       A    A7
There's a pain where there once was a heart
E
It's sleepin, it's a beatin'
           D             A            E
Can't ya please take it out, and preserve it
        B7            E
Right there in that jar?

Verse 1

E
Oh help me, please mama, I'm sick'ning
E                                  A    A7
It's today that's the day of the plunge
E
Oh the gal I'm to marry
D                A
Is a bow-legged sow
E                      B7            E
I've been soakin' up drink like a sponge

Verse 2

E
"Don't ya worry, get dressed," cried my mother
E                                A   A7
As she plied me with bourbon so sour
E
Pull your socks up, put your suit on
           D         A
Comb your long hair down,
E                B7          E
For you will be wed in the hour

Chorus 2

E
Oh help me, please doctor, I'm a-damaged
E                                      A    A7
There's a pain where there once was a heart
E
I'm sleepin, it's a-beatin'
           D             A         E
Can't ya please take it out, and preserve it
       B7             E
Right there in that jar? Alright!

Chorus 3

A
Oh help me, dear doctor, I'm damaged
A                                      D    D7
There's a pain where there once was a heart
      A
It's sleepin, it's   a-beatin'
           G             D         A
Can't ya please take it out, and preserve it
       E             A
Right there in that jar?

Verse 3

A
I was tremblin', as I put on my jacket
A                             D    D7
It had creases as sharp as a knife
            A
I put the ring in my pocket
      G          D
But there was a note
         A              E       A
And my heart jumped right into my mouth

A
It read, "Darlin', I'm sorry to hurt you.
A                                       D    D7
I've  no courage to speak to your face.
A                              G           D
But I'm down in Virginia with your cousin Lou
           A       E      A
And there'll  be no wedding today."

A
So help me, please doctor, I'm damaged
A                                 D   D7
You can put back my heart in its hole
A                    G        D
Oh mama, I'm cryin' fat tears of relief
A                    E     A
And my pulse is now under control
