Am7    Am       Am7       Am 
Here I lie in my hospital bed 
Dsus2           Am                    Dsus2          Am 
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 
C            G               F          Am 
Oh you see    I'm not that strong 
Am7  Am  Am7 

    Am                          Am7            Am 
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?
[Pont]
G                       F 
What am I doing in this place? 
E                           F 
Why does the doctor have no face? 
G                          F 
Oh, I can crawl across the floor 
          Am          F                        Am 
Can't you see, Sister Morphine, I'm trying to score.
[Strophe]
        Am7           Am             Am7            Am 
Well it just goes to show things are not what they seem- 
Dsus2          Am                Dsus2           Am 
Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams. 
G                           F 
Oh can't you see I'm fading fast? 
        Am       F              Am 
And the big shot     will be my last.
[Strophe]
Am7          Am               Am7                    Am 
Sweet cousin cocaine, lay your cool cool hands on my head 
Dsus2            Am             Dsus2       Am 
Oh c'mon Sister Morphine, better make up my bed  
    G                          F 
Cos you know and I know in the morning I'll be dead 
        Am             F             E                          Am 
You can sit around and watch all the clean white sheets stained red.
