Verse:
Dm
I was down in Amsterdam
Almost hurt myself to death
C
I pushed myself so hard
Dm
Just like the redlight girls
Dm
Well I cried and stopped to smile
I thought that my career is over
C Dm
And the dealer boys they had to bring me water
F Dm
I stumbled over mountains
F Dm
And the shadows of the street
F Dm
I fell into the river
A
I cried and and begged for mercy
And I talked to god on the telephone
Chorus:
F C
But I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a lie
F C
No I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a lie
Verse:
Dm
When I came to in Amsterdam
The hotel showed a movie
C Dm
With Marlon Brando and his friend Pacino
Dm
Well I thought that this is nice
And I'm sure I can relax now
C Dm
But suddenly the room was full of demons
F Dm
I escaped through the window
F Dm
Almost ran a mile away
F Dm
I had nowhere to go
A
So I cried and I begged for mercy
And I talked to god on the telephone
Chorus:
F C
But I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a lie
F C
No I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a liiie

Bridge:
Gm
But nothing seems to matter
Dm
In this lonesome dirty town
A
But for a short brief moment
Dm D7
I thought she was the one
Gm
And she and I were fighting
Dm
About sex, love and TV
A
That's why I had to get down and talk
To god on the telephone
Chorus:
F C
But I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a lie
F C
No I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a li-i-ie
End.
