Here is a link to the song I mentioned. The album wasn't released on CD yet. It was ripped from the LP.
Oh, Doctor, Doctor
(Tom Paxton)
Eb Gm
You told me the sunshine was bound to revive me.
F Gm
You told me the cool breeze was gonna bring me around.
Eb Gm
But something is breaking and moving inside me,
F Gm
And something inside me is tearing me down.
Eb Gm
Oh, Doctor, Doctor, you didn't give me no warning.
G Gm
You didn't help me get ready - now anybody can see.
Eb Gm
I can't stand the pity and the sorrowful glances.
G Gm
They all know my body is quitting on me.
F Gm
Oh, Doctor, Doctor, don't let me just lie here,
F Gm
Don't let me just wait here 'cause the waiting's too slow.
F Gm
Oh, Doctor, Doctor, please show me some mercy.
F Gm
I'm tired of waiting - please let me go.
Eb Gm
I want to open my window; I want to feel the sunshine;
F Gm
Listen to children go hurrying past.
Eb Gm
See the beautiful blackbird settle down in the chestnut.
F Gm
It's a beautiful sunset and I hope it's my last.
F Gm
Oh, Doctor, Doctor, don't let me just lie here,
F Gm
Don't let me just wait here 'cause the waiting's too slow!
F Gm
Oh, Doctor, Doctor, please show me some mercy!
F Eb Gm
I'm tired of waiting - please let me go!
Lyrics are printed on the inner notes of the album, and the chords are very simple. The song is originally in Gm.
