[Bb]
[F]
[Bb] I'm sitting here wasted and wounded with this [F] old piano
Trying
[Bb] hard to capture the moment This morning [F] I don't know
Cause [Am] a bottle of vodka [Bb] still lies in my head
And [F] some clown gave me nightmares I think that she's still in [Bb] my bed
As I dream about movies [C] they won't make of me when [F] I'm dead
[Bb] With an iron clad fist I wake up and flinch, kiss [F] the morning
While [Bb] some marching band keeps its own beat in my head while [F] we're talking
About
[Am] all the things that [Bb] I long to believe
[F] About love, the truth, what you mean to me
[Bb] And the truth is, baby [C] you're all that [F] I need
[E] I wanna [Dm] lay [C] you down [Bb] in a bed [F] of roses
Or [Dm] tonight
[C] sleep [Bb] on a bed [F]
[Bb] of bees
Just [F] as close as [Bb] the morning [F] ghost is
[Dm] And lay [C]
[Bb] you down on a bed [F] of roses
Well [Bb] I'm so far away, step that I take's on [F] my way home
[Bb] Kings, ransom and dimes I give each night to see through [F] this bed form
Still [Am] I run out of time or [Bb] it's hard to get through
Till [F] the bell on the wire calls me back to you
I [Bb] just close my eyes, baby [C] my [F] love is [E] true
[Am] [Dm] [C] Lay you [Bb] down in a [F] bed of roses
Or [D] tonight [C] sleep [Bb] on a [F] bed [Bb] of bees
Just as [F] close as the [Bb] morning
[F] ghost is
[Dm] And lay [C] [Bb] you down on a [F] bed of roses
[C] Well [Bb] this hotel bar's [C] hangover whiskey's gonna dry the [F] bar people
And she's giving me the eye, well [Bb] I might have said yeah
But I laughed so [C] hard I think [F] I've died
[E]
So [Em] sorry
[D] Now [C]
[Bb] [F]
[Dm] [C]
[Bb] [F]
[Dm] [C]
[Bb] [F]
[Dm] [C] [Bb]
[F]
[Bb] as you close your eyes, know I'll be thinking [F] about you
While [Bb] my mistress she calls me to stand in her spotlight [F]
again
Tonight [Bb] I won't be alone, to know that don't mean [F] I'm not lonely
I [Dm] got nothing [C] to prove [Bb] for you that I [F] died at this bed
[Am] [Dm] Lay [C] you [Bb] down in a [F] bed of roses
Or [Dm] tonight
[C] sleep [Bb] on a bed [F]
[Bb] of bees
Just [F] as close as [Bb] the morning [F] ghost is
[Dm] And lay [C]
you [Bb] down
[F]
[C] I'm [Dm] gonna lay [C] you [Bb] down in a [F] bed of roses
Or [Dm] tonight
[C] sleep [Bb] on a bed [F]
[Bb] of bees
Just [F] as close as [Bb] the morning [F] ghost is
[Dm] And [C] lay you [Bb] down
In a bed of [F] roses
