Lyrics

Patient 3 sits all alone, staring blankly at the phone

Hoping for someone to call

He sits and cries and wonders why

he's the chosen one to die

Is the pain worth it all?

Patient 3's like you and me, same age with lots ahead to see

That don't apply to him

'Cos Patient 3 is very ill

with something thats gonna kill

Theres nothing they can do

Chorus

G                          Bm

So Daddy Daddy please dont cry

                        C

Your only sons about to die

                   Am

He don't have no choice

G                         Bm

And mother dear can't you see?

                    C

I'm as happy as can be

               Am

It is just my time

                 D

I'll die in my prime

BACK TO VERSE CHORDS

He remembers happy times as he sings through nursery rhymes

Cos they remind him of home

He'd like the chance to live again

Cos he's been ill since he was 10

But you only live once

He wonders why the bad survive and have the right to be alive

What has he done?

He checks the clock its 5 to ten

Will he see Christmas lights again

Will he see tomorrow??

CHORUS (same as above)

Last verse

(Use same chords as chorus - Darney picks through-if anyone knows

how to play his part can they please submit it - thanks)

A few nights later as stars shone

Patient 3 was sadly gone

Free at last

Doctors tired said we tried

Patient 3 was bound to die

Nothing they could do

Family stand round with their grief

Mixed with feeling of relief

Cos he aint suffering

And as this life ends right next door

All alone sits Patient 4

crying quietly
