[Chorus]
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 tear it out, and preserve it
B7 E
Right there in that jar?
[Verse]
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
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]
E
So help me, please doctor, I'm 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?
[Solo]
[Chorus]
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 tear it out, and preserve it
B7 E
Right there in that jar?
[Verse]
E
I was tremblin', as I put on my jacket
E A A7
It had creases as sharp as a knife
E
I put the ring in my pocket
D A
But there was a note
E B7 E
And my heart it jumped into my mouth
E
It read, "Darlin', I'm sorry to hurt you.
E A A7
But I have no courage to speak to your face.
E D A
But I'm down in Virginia with your cousin Lou
E B7 E
There will be no wedding today."
[Chorus]
E
So help me, please doctor, I'm damaged
E A A7
You can put back my heart in its hole
E D A
Oh mama, I'm cryin' Tears of relief
E B7 E
And my pulse is now under control
