Incident on South Dowling - Paul Kelly

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
We lived on the first floor
G                 Am
We lived in two rooms
G                 Am
Now poor baby
G                 Am
She lives with the worms
G                 Am
La La la la la la la
G                 Am
La La la la la la
La La la la la la la
La La la la la la …
