  Still these allergies remain


   Am(no 5th)  F(no 5th)  Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
My hands can't touch a guitar string

   Am(no 5th)   F(no 5th) Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
My fingers just burn and  ache

   Am(no 5th) F(no 5th)     Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
My head inter-cedes with my bodily     needs

       Am(no 5th) F(no 5th) Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
And my body won't give it a break


   Am(no 5th) F(no 5th)  Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
My heart can  stand a disaster

   Am(no 5th) F(no 5th) Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
My heart can  take a disgrace

       Am(no 5th) F(no 5th)     Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
But my heart is allergic to the women I    love

         Am(no 5th)   F(no 5th)   Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th) 
And it's changing the shape of my face

  Open up it's me again


  Am(no 5th)  F(no 5th) Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
I go to a     famous physician

  Am(no 5th)   F(no 5th) Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
I sleep in the local   hotel

     Am(no 5th) F(no 5th)  Eb(no 5th)  Em(no 5th)
From what I can see of the people like me

       Am(no 5th)     F(no 5th) Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
We get better, but we never get well

     Am(no 5th) F(no 5th)  Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
So I ask      myself this  question

        Am(no 5th) F(no 5th) Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
(it's a question I often   repeat)

         Am(no 5th) F(no 5th)     Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
Where do allergies  go, when it's after a    show

         Am(no 5th)  F(no 5th)    Eb(no 5th) Em(no 5th)
And they want to get something to eat?
