Laura

"Laura" 
Intro: Bb Ab Gb Eb 

Verse: 
Bb                               Gm               C7/G 
Laura calls me in the middle of the night 
C7              Ebm7 
Passes on her     painful information 
Bb                            Bb/A                   Gm             C7/G 
Then these careless fingers, they get caught in her vice 
C7                               F#7 
Til they're bleeding on my coffee table 



B7                        F7                    Gm  
Living alone isn't all that it's cracked up to be 
F#7 
Oh whoa whoa 
B7                        F7                     Gm  
I'm on her side, why does she push the poison on me? 
F#7          B*    Bb 
Oh whoa whoa whoa whoa 

(*First Chorus only) 

Verse: 
Laura has a very hard time 
All her life has been one long disaster 
Then she tells me she suddenly believes she's seen a very good sign 
She'll be taking some aggressive action 

Chorus: 
I fight her wars while she's slamming her doors in my face 
Oh whoa whoa 
Failure to break was the only mistake that she made 
Oh whoa whoa 

Bridge: 

Db                               Eb7 
Here I am feeling like a fucking fool 
Ebdim/A                Ab                 Db     
Do I react the way exactly she intends me to? 
Db                            Db /F                      Eb7 
Every time I think I'm off the hook she makes me lose my cool 
                  Ebdim/A                Ab 
I'm her machine and she can punch all the keys 
                    Ebdim/A                F 
And she can push any button I was programmed through 

Verse: 
Laura calls me when she needs a good fix 
All her questions will get sympathetic  
Answers I should be so immunized to all of her tricks 
She's surviving on her second chances 

Chorus: 
Sometimes I feel like this Godfather deal is all wrong 
How can she hold an umbilical chord for so long? 

*Instrumental Break*  
Db Eb7 Edim/A  Ab  Db 

Bridge: 
I've done everything I can what else am I supposed to do 
I'm her machine and she can punch all the keys 
And she can push any button I was programmed through 

Verse: 
Laura loves me even if I don't care 
That's my problem that's her sacred absolution 
If she had to she would put herself in my chair 
Even though I faced electrocution 

Chorus: 
She always says I'm the best friend that she's ever had 
How do you hang up on someone who needs you that bad?  

Outro: Bb Ab Gb Eb
