C
Would you love me
                          Am
If I told you I was born upstream
                           F
If I told you I come from money, White money
           C
Would you love me, would you love me

C
Well, I was born down
                                Am
By a bad little river in a poor town
                           F
Where an indian-giver put a board out, It said "Boarding House"
          C
Call him Scarecrow, he kept whores around

C
And I'd go there
                         Am
I'd wait my turn on the broke stairs
                             F
And get me the girl with the golden hair
                C
Aw yeah, leave your clothes there, on the folding chair

C
In that cold room
                                    Am
Your breath would twist just like ghosts do
                                 F
You said, "Call me Dorothy in red shoes"
             C                             G
And the bed moved, The bed moved, The bed moved

   F              G                    C       
Tracy, don't you wake that scarecrow tonight

C
Well, the man would come in
                               Am
It's hard living right giving head when
                              F
The sad days of winter have set in
                          C
And the medicine for an mannequin is heroin

C
I'd find you there in the bath
                            Am
We'd cook up your sh*t in a tin can
                             F
And you started calling me Tin Man
                                 C
And we started making plans to begin again, begin again

C
You saved a C note
                         Am
Told me you felt like a seagull
                       F
Told me to meet at the depot
                                C
With the needle, then maybe we'd go, to Reno

C
Where you'd be my desert dove
                               Am
And we'd find a way to make better love
                            F
Said, "Baby, that's how the West was won"
                         G
And the blood-red sun, Yeah, the blood-red sun
         
And the blood-red 

   F              G                    C       F    G
Tracy, don't you wake that scarecrow tonight

C
Well, the man cries,
                             Am
"Who gives a damn when a tramp dies?"
                              F
But I loved you there in the lamp light
                C
With your bare thighs, and the halo of your hair alive

C
And all my lifelong
                           Am
I'll never shake off your siren song
                            F
And all of your talk about dying young
C                          G
With an iron lung and that crazy way

           F                         G                        Am    F
You said, "Simon, I think I might stay here with Scarecrow tonight
F                             G                      C
Simon, I think I'm gonna stay here with Scarecrow tonight."
