V1
I'll be going now
There's nothing more here to be said
I'll be going now
The doctors say I'll soon be dead
Only another heart would see me through
D D-A7
Only another's heart

V2
You should be going now
You have done all that you can do
You should be going now
You have a life to think of too
Only your loving heart has helped to get me through
Only your loving heart
[Four lines of lead improv over strummed chords, I use
which fade out, leaving]
[a ticking clock] [then fade in siren and hospital sounds with music]

BRIDGE
We have a don - or (AH! AH!)
We have a donor prep him ! Prep him ! Prep him !
Car accident accident victim car accident
Car accident prep him ! Prep him !
Head injury .................
A good tissue match
We have a donor we have consent We have a donor
Young woman young woman
Young woman wait I've seen her before
Up on the seventh floor
Oh no oh God let's go prep him ! Prep him !
[Instrumental bridge: Heavy lead over top of heavy

I will be going now
My new heart and I are pulling through
Who was the donor
Today they told me it was you
To only your loving heart
I'll be forever true
(only your loving heart)
