Brian Coll -  China Doll chords
Start Jamming...
I'm tired [D] of crying and [G] of lying
That's why [D] I'm buying a [E] China doll
[A] Our [D] eyes are more, our lips [G] are truer
Our thoughts [D] are fewer, [A] my China [D]
doll
I'd
[A] rather have a doll of clay
[D] That I could call my own
[Am] Than [E]
someone [Ab] else just like [E] you
With a heart of stone [B] she'll [D] never leave me
She'll not [G]
deceive me, no [D] never grieve [A] me
My China [D]
doll

Those tears of sorrow, [A] [D] no sad [G]
tomorrow
No one [D] can
[A] borrow my [E] China [A] doll
Our eyes [D] are more, our lips [G] are truer
Our thoughts [D] are fewer, [A] [Bb] my [A] China [Em] [Gm] doll
