Chord/Tab song: Folk Song for Sara

[A] [D]
[A]He called his best friend long distance and [D]told him the news
Of his girlfriend's [A]attempted suicide by [E]overdose
He hadn't [A]taken her to the emergency [D]room but her roommates did
And[A] her stomach was pumped [E]bone dry [A]through a tube
It only [D]cost her one thousand [A]dollars in bills
And an [D]obligatory psychologi[E]cal review

[A]And she stopped crying in her sleep
[D7]And she stopped walking in her sleep
[A]And she stopped sleeping in her [E]sleep [A]too

And she said I'm gonna [E]write your name on the walls
I'm gonna [A]carve your name in the stalls
I'm gonna [E]write your name on the walls
I'm gonna [A]carve your name in the [D]stalls

[A]Stay a[D]way from this[A] man
Stay away from this man
[A]Stay a[D]way from this[E] man
He'll make you swallow aspirin

[A] [D]
So she fell in love with a loser who robbed used and bruised her
And those were just the salad days
After that a habitual clean up with pesto-bismol and prozac
She even got a job as a washing machine
And he still calls his friend long distance
And speaks of his various girlfriends
But there's never really much different to tell

Eventually they stop crying in their sleep
They stopped walking in her sleep
And they stopped sleeping in her sleep as well

And they write his name on the walls
And they carve his name in the stalls
And they write his name on the walls
And they carve his name in the stalls
Stay away from this man
Stay away from this man
Stay away from this man

And then they pick him up in bars and in public parks
And then they pick him up in bars, in grocery stores and coffee shops
And then he tears through their legs to reach their heart
Through their legs to get their heart
Through their legs to steal their heart again
And it's a headache
And so they take
A little aspirin
