  VERSE 
  Ab7               Fm/Ab  
  Lying awake in my hospital room 
  Ab7                     Fm7/Ab 
  Silas Creek Parkway is my only view 
          Dbm9   
  And the doctor just came by, and told me the news 
           Ab7              
  I need a second opinion,  
  Ab6                       Ebm7(add2)  
  I don't believe that it's true
