[Verse 1]
C C/B A G
Martha takes the greyhounds
F G F G
she says she lost her mantra way down South
C C/B A G F G F
but all that repetition just got her down, got her down
[Bridge 1]
E F
Now she says she won't do drugs
E F
because she found something to love
E F
she cured herself of everything
E F
there's nothing left but hair and skin
[Chorus 1]
F G
The only thing I asked her
F G
was did she have a plaster
F G
for my pain, oh for the pain
[Verse 2]
C C/B A G
She closed her eyes and took my hand,
F G F G
she said "God might have a plan for me"
C C/B A G
But making love in Martha's room
F G F G
I felt like I could see through her to him
[Bridge 2]
E F
But heaven is the place that's open
E F
when all the bars in town are closed and
E F E F
heaven is the place, I'll never find
[Chorus 2]

was that God would have no answer
F G F
for my pain, oh for the pain

She threw my clothes against the wall
F G
she said "I've met your type before
F G F
don't go, oh don't go"
C C/B A G
I've cured myself of everything
F G F G
and now I think I know what makes you tick
[Bridge 3]
E F
She tied my hands above my head
E F
and said a prayer and fetched a whip
E F
she said the devil hides within my heart
[Chorus 3]
F G
The only thing I asked her
F G
was did she have a plaster
F G F
for my pain, oh for the pain

oh for the pain, oh for the pain
