{section: Intro}
[Dsus4] [G] [C9] [D] [Dsus4] [G] [C9] [D]
[Dsus4]Sweet Lor raine [G]the fiery head [C9] brown eyed schemer [D]
who came from a long line of drinkers and dreamers
who knew that sunshine don?t hold up to dark
whose businesses fail who sleep in the park
Lor raine who spoke of paintings in Paris
and outlandish things to her family just to scare us
whose heart went pokin? where it shouldn?t ought
whose mot[C9]her could only, spit at th[G]e thought [D]
Lorrai[C9]ne, sw[Dsus4]eet Lorrain[G]e [C9] [D] [Dsus4] [G] [C9] [D]
[Dsus4]Her fat[G]her would tear out like [C9]a page of the Bible [D]
then he?d burn down the house to announce his arrival
her mother was working and never was home
Lor raine carved out a little life of her own
[Dsus4]Lor [G] raine started working, Lorraine wen[C9]t to school [D]
her mother threw stones at her on the day that she moved
now isn?t that a very strange thing to do
for [C9]someone who never really wanted you [G] [D]
Lorra[C9]ine, sw[Dsus4]eet Lorrai[G]ne [C9] [D]
Her dad[Am]dy called her a slut and a whore [C]
on the nig[G]ht before her wedding[D] day [Am]
the very next morning, at the ch[C]urch
her da[D]ddy gave, Lorraine [C9]away, Lorraine away
Lorraine, swee[Dsus4]t Lorraine [G]
[Dsus4]In the bat[G]tle of time, in the[C9] battle of will [D]
it?s only your hope and your heart that gets killed
and it?s harder and harder Lorraine, to believe in magic
[C9]
when what [C9]came before you was so very tragic [G] [D]
Lo[C9]rraine, swe[Dsus4]et Lorrai[G]ne
[Dsus4]Sweet Lorra[G]ine [C9] [D] [Dsus4] [G] [C9] [D]
