China Doll
[Dm]
[Dm Fmaj7]
A pistol shot, at five o'clock,
[Bo7 Bb]
The bells of heaven ring,
[A7 Dm]
Tell me what you done it for,
[F C A7] ðŸ«
No I won't tell you a thing.
[Dm Fmaj7]
Yesterday I begged you
[Bo7 Bb]
Before I hit the ground,
[A7 Dm]
All I leave behind me
[F C A7] ðŸ«
Is only what I found.
[Dm Fmaj7]
If you can abide it,
[Bo7 Bb]
Let the hurdy-gurdy play,
[A7 Dm]
Stranger ones have come by here
[F C A7] ðŸ«
Before they flew away.
[Dm Fmaj7]
I will not condemn you
[Bo7 Bb]
Nor yet would I deny,
[A7 Dm]
I would ask the same of you,
[F C A7] ðŸ«
But failing, will not die.
[C#o7 🫠D]
[D A] ðŸ«
Take up your china doll, (take up your china doll)
[G D]
It's only fractured; just a little nervous from the fall.

[G D]
La-la-la-la-la-la-la.
