 As the blood flowed,
Lorraine knew,
 They'd  be nobody coming,
Nobody's  coming,
 As the blood flowed,
Lorraine knew,
 There'd  be nobody coming,
(throw  in some  hammer ons where you see fit)
 The call  came in,
 Lorraine  shot down,
 Her husband  pulled the trigger,
 Then  he blew his brains out,
 At the other  end,
 The police  took a call,
 They didn't  believe,
 That he  was dead at all,
 And they wouldn't  help her and she knew;
 It had been 20 years since they fell in love,
 He's brought a lot of pain,
 But now he's brought alot of blood,
 And he's taken more than his share,
 We can't lose a life,
 The police chief said,
 There's an armed man in there,
 He'd be better off dead
 As Lorraine bled from her legs,
 As the blood flowed,
Lorraine knew,
 They'd  be nobody coming,
Nobody's  coming,
 As the blood flowed,
Lorraine knew,
 There'd  be nobody coming,
 Speak to me now,
 But all she could say,
 Was "I don't want to die like this",
 So they sit there on their way,
 They never heard,
 That she was Lorraine,
 So they didn't let her die,
 With ever her name,
 As she left us all in pain,
 As the blood flowed,
Lorraine knew,
 They'd  be nobody coming,
Nobody's  coming,
 As the blood flowed,
Lorraine knew,
 There'd  be nobody coming,
(never  is  played  by the actual band but if you want to end on a perfect cadence include
 otherwise leave it out the Em)
