VERSE 1

D                                                                         G
My mate said don't get on that horse, he's made a fool of better men than you
    A                                                            D
But I was young and foolish not to mention being stubborn like a mule
D                                                       G
One second I was in the air, next I was feet up kissin' dirt
            A                                                           D
Through the haze I heard a voice say 'Bring a doctor I think the boy is hurt'


CHORUS

D           G                D
Doctor, the light is growing dim
         G                D              A  
And I've heard it calling from the other side
D                 G              D
Doctor there's so much I haven't done 
                 G                 D               A
And there's that sparkle that I've seen in Becky's eyes
                           D
Oh Doctor I'm too young to die


VERSE 2

D                                                                    G
They took me to a shady spot and the Doctor took one look and softly spoke
         A                                                             D
'There's really nothing I can do, bring his Mother I think his back is broke'
D                                                                  G
It was then I heard a voice say something about a good for nothing son
          A                                                                   D
Why'd you go and do a thing like that bring the preacher I think his time has come


REPEAT CHORUS


VERSE 3

D                                                                    G 
Then darkness fell around me and up ahead the pearly gates came into view
      A                                                     D
Saint Peter said 'Hey cowboy c'mon in, we've been expecting you'


CHORUS 2

           D          G                D
But I said Doctor the light is growing dim
         G               D              A
and I've heard a calling from the other side
D                 G              D
Doctor there's so much I haven't done
                 G                 D               A
And there's that sparkle that I've seen in Becky's eyes
           D          G                D     G     D     A
But I said Doctor the light is growing dim
D                 G              D           G     D     A
Doctor there's so much I haven't done
A                       D
Doctor I'm too young to die
