Dm                   Am
You called for me so here I am 

Dm              Am
Not a boy and not a man 

Gm            Dm                 Gm        Am
Man enough to know the odds are long 

Dm                     Am
They dress you up and keep you clean

Dm               Am
Like courtiers around a queen

Gm                  Dm                Am7b5
Show you good from bad, right from wrong 

Ab        Gm              Fm
All the tears in the world

Ab        Gm              Fm
All the tears in the world

                     Cm   Bbm    Dm
Won't mend a broken doll

Dm                   Am
The little things in life escape her

Dm                 Am
Dolls are made of rags and paper

Gm                Dm             Gm          Am
China cracks and chips so easily

Dm                Am
Doesn't have the will, the strength

Dm                    Am
To hold the world out at arm's length

Gm                 Dm                Am7b5
Skin's too thin, eyes too wide to see

Ab        Gm              Fm
All the tears in the world

Ab        Gm              Fm
All the tears in the world

                        Cm   Bbm    
Won't mend a broken doll

Dm                 Am
Wish I could give love to you

Dm                   Am
And life to you and hope to you

Gm                  Dm               Gm          Am
As you look through me to something else

Dm              Am
In your face I think I see

Dm            Am
Twisted-up infinity

Gm           Dm                Am7b5
Angel soul imprisoned in a shell

Ab        Gm              Fm
All the tears in the world

Ab        Gm              Fm
All the tears in the world

                      Cm   Bbm    Dm
Won't mend a broken doll
