G G/F# Em C Bm
[Verse 1]
G G/F#
Somewhere in the south of Spain
Em C
Sammy, still sixteen, goes with his uncle for a ride
Bm
The sun is high
[Verse 2]
G G/F#
Sailing through the city
Em
For to see the sights and talking sex

Sammy's sitting tall
Bm
The sun is high
[Verse 3]
G G/F#
His uncle brings him to a brothel
Em
Being big he buys a drink

Rum and coke

Don't taste too bad
[Verse 4]
G G/F#
Having brought him to the brink
Em
His uncle leaves him with his drink
C
Rum and coke
Bm
Don't taste too bad
[Bridge 1]
Em
The girls all gather in a group
G
And give Sammy boy the eye
Em
And stare at him seductively
G
And try to make him buy
[Verse 5]
G G/F#
So choosing one that's younger
Em
Better looking than the rest
C Bm
Sammy speaks no Spanish but she understands
[Verse 6]
G G/F#
They go upstairs to buy the room
Em
She wants her money in advance
C Bm
Sammy speaks no Spanish but he understands
[Verse 7]
G G/F#
And lying on her back upon the bed she beckons
Em C
Sammy won't lie down yet
Bm
He wants her nude
[Verse 8]
G G/F#
Speaking Spanish she refuses him
Em
At last, afraid of losing him,
C
She takes off all her clothes
Bm
He wants her nude
[Bridge 2]
Em G
Her hands upon her heart can hardly hide the horrid scars
Em G
From her shoulder to her waist, her skin is leathery and hard
[Verse 9]
G G/F#
She pantomimes an accident
Em
A car, a fire
C
Not so long ago
Bm
His eyes are wide
[Verse 10]
G G/F#
She moves to put her clothes back on
Em
But he won't let her go
C
He lies her down
Bm
His eyes are wide
[Verse 11]
G G/F#
And lightly, like a Lover
Em C
Sammy lets his lips caress the leather of her breast
Bm
His brain is numb
[Verse 12]
G G/F#
Moved by some far distant mind
Em
He makes himself her bride-groom
C
Sammy's hardly there at all
Bm
His brain is numb
[Bridge 3]
Em
She moves to take him in now
G
But her hand finds him still slack
Em
So she sucks to make him hard
G
And then again lies on her back
[Verse 13]
G G/F# Em
And Sammy does the deed to silent screaming in his skull
C
The scars surround him
Bm
Is this all real?
[Verse 14]
G G/F#
Schizophrenic, Sammy sees himself
Em C
Outside his body and his brain
Bm
Is this all real?
[Verse 15]
G G/F# Em
And back at the hotel he has to heal himself
C
But all he does is shake
Bm
And shake some more
[Verse 16]
G G/F# Em
Without the grace of tears or sickness
C
Sammy sucks it all inside and shakes
Bm
And shakes some more
