Prog A
sitting here wasted and wounded at this old piano
trying hard to capture the moment this morning I don't know
C F D5
'cause a bottle of vodka's still lodged in my head
and some blond gave me nightmares
i think that she's still in my bed
C
as I dream about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead
F
with an ironclad fist I wake up and french kiss the morning
F
while some marching band keeps its own beat in my head while we're
talking
C F D5
about all of the things that I long to believe,
C
about love, the truth and what you mean to me.
F D5 C
and the truth is, baby, you're all that I need.
Prog B E-----------------| B--1-3-1-0--------| G-----------------| D-----------------| A-----------------| E-----------------|
F C D5 A7
i want to lay you down on a bed of roses
F G B
for tonite I sleep on a bed of nails
D5 A7 F D5 A7
i want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
F C D5
and lay you down on a bed of roses
F
well I'm so far away
C
each step that I take is on my way home
F
a king's ransom in dimes I'd give each night
to see through this payphone
C F
still I run out of time or it's hard to get through
C
till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
F F D5 C
i'll just close my eyes and whisper, baby blind love is true
Prog B
CHORUS
F G
where the hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry
the barkeeper's wig's crooked
D5
and she's giving me the eye
C
well i might have said yeah
C C
but I laughed so hard I think I died

Prog A
now as you close your eyes know I'll be thinking about you
while my mistress she calls me to stand in her spotlight again tonite
I won't be alone but you know that don't mean I'm not lonely
F C
i've got nothing to prove
D5
for it's you that I'd die to defend
Prog C
CHORUS x2
