A
Oh help me, please doctor, I'm damaged
Am
There's a pain where there once was a heart
A
It's sleepin, it's a beatin'
      G
Can't ya please tear it out, and preserve it
A

Right there in that jar?


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

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

A
So help me, please doctor, I'm damaged
Am
There's a pain where there once was a heart
A
I'm sleepin, it's a beatin'
G
Can't ya please take it out, and preserve it
A
Right there in that jar?
Yup!

("D" Over Solo)


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

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

A
It read, "Darlin', I'm sorry to hurt you.
Am
But I have no courage to speak to your face.
G
But I'm down in Virginia with your cousin Lou
A
There be no wedding today."

A
So help me, please doctor, I'm damaged
Am
You can put back my heart in its hole
A
Oh mama, I'm cryin'
G
Tears of relief
A
