Tom: G

G        Em          C         G
I come a knocking at her front door
C       G                  D
Hard to believe that she's prettier than before
    G
But she smiles pretty
   C          G
My heart just stalls
C      G           D      G
I'm in love with a living doll

G                 Em
She walks and she talks
              C         G
Sometimes she talks too much
    C          G                D
She cries real tears when she's hurt by such and such
  G                Em         C       G
I found her tossed away by an old boy friend
   C                G
He must have been a fool
          D      G
She's the living end

C             G             C            Em
She's not the kind that you wrap up in a pretty bow
C             G                C        Em
You shouldn't leave her in the backyard rain
C        G            C             Em               C
A living doll's got a lot of places she could go
            G
You play it dumb

You lose her
D        G
That's a shame

    G       Em             C     G
Now late at night before I go to bed
  C             G
I try to say my prayers
  D
I think of her instead
  G              Em
I fumble for the phone
        C           G
I gotta make a last call
  C         G               D     G
I gotta say goodnight to my living doll
