C majorC
Would you love me
             A minorAm
If I told you I was born upstream
              FF
If I told you I come from money, White money
      C majorC
Would you love me, would you love me

C majorC
Well, I was born down
                A minorAm
By a bad little river in a poor town
              FF
Where an indian-giver put a board out, It said "Boarding House"
     C majorC
Call him Scarecrow, he kept whores around

C majorC
And I'd go there
             A minorAm
I'd wait my turn on the broke stairs
               FF
And get me the girl with the golden hair
        C majorC
Aw yeah, leave your clothes there, on the folding chair

C majorC
In that cold room
                  A minorAm
Your breath would twist just like ghosts do
                 FF
You said, "Call me Dorothy in red shoes"
       C majorC               G+G
And the bed moved, The bed moved, The bed moved

  FF       G+G          C majorC
Tracy, don't you wake that scarecrow tonight

C majorC
Well, the man would come in
                A minorAm
It's hard living right giving head when
               FF
The sad days of winter have set in
             C majorC
And the medicine for an mannequin is heroin

C majorC
I'd find you there in the bath
              A minorAm
We'd cook up your shit in a tin can
               FF
And you started calling me Tin Man
                 C majorC
And we started making plans to begin again, begin again

C majorC
You saved a C majorC note
             A minorAm
Told me you felt like a seagull
            FF
Told me to meet at the depot
                C majorC
With the needle, then maybe we'd go, to Reno

C majorC
Where you'd be my desert dove
                A minorAm
And we'd find a way to make better love
              FF
Said, "Baby, that's how the West was won"
             G+G
And the blood-red sun, Yeah, the blood-red sun

And the blood-red

  FF       G+G          C majorC    FF  G+G
Tracy, don't you wake that scarecrow tonight

C majorC
Well, the man cries,
               A minorAm
"Who gives a damn when a tramp dies?"
               FF
But I loved you there in the lamp light
        C majorC
With your bare thighs, and the halo of your hair alive

C majorC
And all my lifelong
              A minorAm
I'll never shake off your siren song
              FF
And all of your talk about dying young
C majorC             G+G
With an iron lung and that crazy way

      FF             G+G            A minorAm  FF
You said, "Simon, I think I might stay here with Scarecrow tonight
FF               G+G           C majorC
Simon, I think I'm gonna stay here with Scarecrow tonight."
