[Blues it up in the first verse by adding these
where appropriate]
E5
Sitting here wishing on the scenery floor[?]
G5 E5
Just wishing that I had just something you wore
G5 E5 G5 E5
Put it on when I’m oh lonely
Am C D E5
Will you take off your dress and send it to me?
I miss your kissing and I miss your head
And the letter that you’re writing doesn’t mean you’re not dead
Run outside in the desert heat
Make your dress all wet and send it to me
I miss your soup and I miss your bread
And the letter that you’re writing doesn’t mean you’re not dead
So spill your breakfast and drip your wine
Just wear that dress when you di-i-ie
Sitting here wishing on the scenery floor
Just wishing that I had just something you wore
Bloody your hands on a cactus tree
Wipe it on your dress and send it to me
Sitting here wishing on the scenery floor
Just wishing that I had just something you wore
