[F] I'm [Bb] 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 you're still in [Bb] my bed
As I dream about movies [C] they won't make of me when [F] I'm dead
With
[Bb] an iron clad fist I wake up and flinch [F] just the morning
[Bb] While some marching band keeps a song beat in my head
[F] While we're talking about [Am] all the things that [Bb] I long to believe
[F] About love, the truth, what you mean to [Bb] me
And the truth is, baby [C] you're all that [F] I need
[E] I wanna [Dm]
lay [C] you down [Bb] in a [F] bed of roses
Go [Dm] to night [C] sleep [Bb] on a bed [F]
of [Bb] roses
Just [F] as cruel as this, [Bb] the morning [F] ghost is
[Dm]
[C] And lay [Bb] you down on a bed [F] of roses
Well I'm [Bb] so far away, the 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 for home
Still [Am] I run out of time or [Bb] it's hard to get through [F] to the girl who lies
Lies me back to you, [Bb] I just close my eyes
And you say, baby, [C] my [F] love is true
[E] Lay [Dm]
[C] you [Bb] down in a [F] bed of roses
Go [D] to night [C] sleep [Bb] on a bed [F]
[Bb] of roses
[F] Just as cruel as this, [Bb]
the [F] morning 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 [F] the bar keep a-
Wait, she's giving me the eye, [Bb] well I might have said yeah
But I laugh [C] so hard I [F] think I've died
[E] [Dm]

[Bb] as you close your eyes, know I've been thinking [F] about you
While my [Bb] 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 a different
[C] Lay [Am] [Dm] [C] you [Bb] down in a [F] bed of roses
Go [Dm] to night [C]
sleep [Bb] on a bed [F] of roses
[Bb] Just [F] as cruel as this, [Bb] the morning [F]
ghost is
[Dm] [C] Lay [Bb] you [F] down
