[Verse 1:]
Baby, go down to the drugstore buy me a guitar string
Be sure to wear your coat girl 'cause it might rain
'Cause honey, you know that rain is bad for my guitar strings

[Chorus:]
Put on your warm coat honey, it's gonna be cold tonight
Put on the one that's warm and long
'Cause you're just before hearin' my brand new goodbye song

[Verse 2:]
Baby, I've tried your doctors, they just couldn't make me well
The higher I tried to climb the farther I fell
I guess it must have blew my mind sniffing the fumes of hell

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
Baby, throw away my pillow just before you turn the light
All you'll have next to you now will be the night
I'll be somewhere wrong you'll be somewhere right

[Chorus]
