   Bm      A
My head it hurts each 
D                G
day it's getting worse
   Bm         A
My looks and smile 
     D             G
have now become my curse
      Bm        A
Tight lips red skirt

the never ending street

Big car little man

my lover for a fee

Standing in the rain
F#-G-F#            G  F# Em D
       20 years of dirty needles

rain drops running 
through my veins!

My head it hurts each day

it's getting worse
   Bm     A        D
No sun my room has now 
          G
become my hearse
     Bm         A
Cold sores, I'm beat
    D             G
got bruises on my feet
   Bm           A
My pride, these men have 
D             G
taken it from me!
