Verse 1
Am
My baby was dying
Turning so blue Four feet from me dying My head was like glue I couldn't save my baby (He couldn't save his baby) Verse 2
Am
Loaded and sinking
To the vegetable zone She just kept on sinking Now she's mineral and bone I couldn't save my baby (He couldn't save his baby) Chorus
G                 Am
We lived on the first floor

G                 Am
We lived in two rooms

G                 Am
Now my poor baby

G                 Am
She lives with the worms
Verse 3
Am
A head full of rocks
It's a heavy heavy head I was watching a movie Where someone looked dead Now people that whisper Now people they stare They say I couldn't save her Even though I was right there I couldn't save my baby (He couldn't save his baby) Chorus
G                 Am

She lives with the worms
