[F] [C]
[F] Sitting here wasted and wounded with [C] this old piano
[F] Trying hard to capture the moment this [C] morning I don't know
[Em] Cause the bottle of [F] vodka still lodged in my [C] head
And some blonde gave me nightmares
Think that she's still [F] in my bed
Cause I dream about [G] movies they won't make of me [C] when I'm dead
[F] With an iron clenched fist I wake up, [C] revenge kills the morning
[F] While some marching band keeps a song beat in my [C] head while we're talking
[Em] About all of the [F] things that I long to [C] believe
About love, the truth, what you mean to [F] me
And the truth is, baby you're [C] all that I [G] need
[Am] I wanna lay [G] you down in a [C] bed of roses
[Am] For the night [Bm] I sleep on a [C] bed of nails
Oh I [F] wanna be [C] just as close [F] as the [C] holy ghost is
And lay [F] you down on a [C] bed of roses
[G]
[F] Well I'm so far away each step that I [C] take's on my way home
[A] A [F] king's ransom in dimes I give each night to see [C] through this bed form
[Em] Still I run out of [F] time or it's hard to get [C] through
Till the bird on the wire flies beat back to [F] you
I just close my eyes
Whisper, baby, [C] blind love is true
[G] I [A] wanna lay you down in a [C] bed of roses
[A] For the night [Bm] I sleep on a [C] bed of nails
Oh [F] I wanna be [C] just as close [F] as the [C] holy ghost is

[Bm] [F] Well this hotel boss [G] hangover whiskey's gonna dry [C] the barkeeper's beach crooked
She's giving me the eye
[F] Well I might have said yeah
But I laughed so hard I [C] think I died
[Bm] I'm so sick
