[Verse 1]
E B
Well, I'm sittin' in the back porch
D A
On the north-west side of town
E B
Picturing last night way up in the city
D A
Where they shot my baby down
[Chorus]
D
She could be dyin', oh, oh, no
A
Well, it can't much matter to you
D
I found her lyin', yeah, yeah, yeah
B E
Near the ball park down at school
Hold on, baby, I need you, honey
D A
Won't you bring yourself around
E B
You've gotta help me, help me, mama
D A
I'm gonna rip this crazy town
[Chorus]

She could be dyin', oh, oh, no

Well, it can't much matter to you

I found her lyin', yeah, yeah, yeah

E B
The sheriff came on to question my brother
D A
I could have dropped down through the floor
E B
Before I could turn round, he was runnin' for cover
D A
Like a billy goat through the door
[Chorus]
D
She could be dyin', oh, oh, no
A
Well, it can't much matter to you
D
I found her lyin', yeah, yeah, yeah
B E
Near the ball park down at school
