[Intro] Dm F C G Dm F C G [Verse 1]
          Dm
Well when I first met Doreen

        F
She was barely seventeen

        C                             G
She was drinking whiskey sours in the bar

        Dm
And the way she tossed 'em back

           F
I would've had a heart attack

          C                     G
But as it is I let her drive my car

   Dm
We galloped through the boroughs

       F
Like a pair of horny thoroughbreds

  C                             G
Until I said, "Stop the car, Doreen"

      Dm
Well, you can roll your eyes and nod

      F                           C
But I swear that I saw God in the moonlight

                        G
On a side street in the wreckage we call Queens
[Chorus]
  F       C
Doreen, Doreen

Dm                        F
Last night I had an awful dream

         F                       C
You were layin' in the arms of a man I'd never seen

     Dm       F
Come clean, Doreen

     Dm       F
Come clean, Doreen
[Break] Dm F C G Dm F C G [Verse 2]
          Dm
Well, I'm pulling into Cleveland

     F
In a seven-seater tour van

        C                                   G
There's eight of us, so I'm sleeping on the floor

        Dm
And the guy that plays the banjo

         F
Keeps on handing me the old crow

     C                             G
That multiplies my sorrow, I can't take it anymore
[Chorus]
  F       C
Doreen, Doreen

Dm                        F
Last night I had an awful dream

         F                       C
You were layin' in the arms of a man I'd never seen

     Dm       F
Come clean, Doreen

     Dm       F
Come clean, Doreen
[Break] Fm Fm Fm [Solo] Dm F C G Dm F C G [Verse 3]
         Dm
Well I'm begging and I'm pleading

             F
"Please pull over guys, I'm bleeding

          C                           G
There's a Fina off the highway with a phone"

        Dm
And I'm calling you, Doreen

        F
But the phone it rings and rings

      C                                 G
Where is it that you are, if you aren't in our bed at home
[Chorus]
  F       C
Doreen, Doreen

Dm                        F
Last night I had an awful dream

         F                       C
You were layin' in the arms of a man I'd never seen

     Dm       F
Come clean, Doreen

     Dm
Come clean,

  F       C
Doreen, Doreen

Dm                        F
Last night I had an awful dream

         F                       C
You were layin' in the arms of a man I'd never seen

     Dm       F
Come clean, Doreen

     Dm       F
Come clean, Doreen

           Dm       F
I'm coming clean, Doreen

           Dm       F
I'm coming clean, Doreen

F     F     F     Dm
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
