I look for joy in a strange place, from the back of a bar, from afar
Am C G E7
I see the look on my momma's face, when her son's in the corner, undone
A D C#m Bm
She says that my life is over: "Boy, you don't know what you got,
E7 A B
'till it's gone. Come, put your head upon my shoulder"
E
She gave me her hand, but I ignored her
Chorus:
A E A D C#m Bm E7
Oh, doctor John, what am I doing, what am I doing wrong?
A E A D C# Bm E7 Am
'cause I keep on trying, but something ain't going, something ain't going on
C G E7
Doctor John
Am C G E7
I look for joy in a strange place, in the back of a bar, from afar
Am C G E7
I see the look on my daddy's face, when his son's falling over, undone
A D C#m Bm E7
"Father, my life is over, I didn't know what I had, now it's gone
A B E
Can I lay my head upon your shoulder? If I fall asleep, will it be over?"
Chorus:
A E A D C#m Bm E7
Oh, doctor John, what am I doing, what am I doing wrong?
A E A D C# Bm E7
'cause I keep on trying, but something ain't going, something ain't going on
