Artist: The Rolling Stones Author: Mick Jagger/Keith Richard Album: Sticky Fingers

Here I lie in my hospital bed Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again? G F *[fill 1] Oh, and I don`t think I can wait that long Oh you see I`m not that strong

The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears Dsus2 Am *[fill 2]Dsus2 Am Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here? What am I doing in this place? Why does the doctor have no face? Oh, I can crawl across the floor Can`t you see, Sister Morphine, I`m trying to score.

Well it just goes to show things are not what they seem- Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams. Oh can`t you see I`m fading fast? And the big shot will be my last.

Sweet cousin cocaine, lay your cool cool hands on my head Oh c`mon Sister Morphine, better make up my bed Cos you know and I know in the morning I`ll be dead You can sit around and watch all the clean white sheets stained red.
