Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here?
[G]What am I doing in this [F]place?
[E]Why does the doctor have no [F]face?

Can't you [Am]see, Sister [F]Morphine, I'm trying to s[Am]core.
Well it [Am7]just goes to s[Am]how things are [Am7]not what they s[Am]eem-
[Dsus2]Please, Sister [Am]Morphine, turn my [Dsus2]nightmares into [Am]dreams.
[G]Oh can't you see I'm fading [F]fast?
And the [Am]big shot [F] will be my [Am]last.
[Am7]Sweet cousin [Am]cocaine, lay your[Am7] cool cool hands on my [Am]head
[Dsus2]Oh c'mon Sister M[Am]orphine, better[Dsus2] make up my [Am]bed
Cos [G]you know and I know in the [F]morning I'll be dead
You can [Am]sit around and [F]watch all the [E]clean white sheets stained [Am]red.
