EAB
[Verse 1]
EB
Well, I'm sittin' in the back porch
DA
On the north-west side of town
EB
Picturing last night way up in the city
DA
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
BE
Near the ball park down at school
Hold on, baby, I need you, honey
DA
Won't you bring yourself around
EB
You've gotta help me, help me, mama
DA
I'm gonna rip this crazy town
[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
BE
Near the ball park down at school
[Verse 4]
EB
The sheriff came on to question my brother
DA
I could have dropped down through the floor
EB
Before I could turn round, he was runnin' for cover
DA
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
BE
Near the ball park down at school
[Instrumental]
