[Bb]Sitting here wasted and wounded at this old pi[F]ano
[Bb]Trying hard to capture the moment this morning I [F]don't know
'Cause a [Am]bottle of Vodka's still [Bb]lodged in my head
And some [F]blonde gave me nightmares think that she's still in my [Bb]bed
As I [Gm]dream about movies they [C]won't make of me when I'm [F]dead
With an [Bb]ironclad fist I wake up and French kiss the [F]morning
While some [Bb]marching band keeps its own beat in my head while [F]we're talking
About [Am]all of the things that I [Bb]long to believe
About [F]love, the truth, what you mean to me
And the [Bb]truth is [C]baby you're all that I [F]need
I wanna [Dm]lay you [C]down in a [Bb]bed of [F]roses
For to[Dm]night I'll [C]sleep on a [Bb]bed of [F]nails
Oh I wanna [Bb]be just as [F]close as the [Bb]Holy [F]Ghost is
And [Dm]lay [C]you [Bb]down on a bed of [F]roses
Well I'm [Bb]so far away each step that I take is on my [F]way home
A king's [Bb]ransom in dimes, I'd give each night to see through this [F]payphone
Still I [Am]run out of time or it's [Bb]hard to get through
Till the [F]bird on the wire flies me back to you
I'll [Bb]just close my eyes and whisper "[C]Baby, blind love is [F]true"
I wanna [Dm]lay you [C]down in a [Bb]bed of [F]roses
For to[Dm]night I'll [C]sleep on a [Bb]bed of [F]nails
Oh I wanna [Bb]be just as [F]close as the [Bb]Holy [F]Ghost is
And [Dm]lay [C]you [Bb]down on a bed of [F]roses [C]
Well this [Bb]hotel bar's hangover [C]whiskey's gone dry
The bar[F]keeper's wig's crooked and she's giving me the eye
Well I [Bb]might have said yeah but I laughed so [C]hard I think I [F]died
[Dm] [Dm] [C] [Bb] [F] [Dm] [C] [Bb] [F]
Now as [Bb]you close your eyes know I'll be thinking a[F]bout you
While my [Bb]mistress she calls me to stand in her spotlight [F]again
Tonight I [Bb]won't be alone but you know that don't mean I'm not [F]lonely
I've got [Dm]nothing to prove for it's [C]you that I'd [Bb]die to de[F]fend
I wanna [Dm]lay you [C]down in a [Bb]bed of [F]roses
For to[Dm]night I'll [C]sleep on a [Bb]bed of [F]nails
Oh I wanna [Bb]be just as [F]close as the [Bb]Holy [F]Ghost is
And [Dm]lay [C]you [Bb]down
I wanna [Dm]lay you [C]down in a [Bb]bed of [F]roses
For to[Dm]night I'll [C]sleep on a [Bb]bed of [F]nails
Oh I wanna [Bb]be just as [F]close as the [Bb]Holy [F]Ghost is
And [Dm]lay [C]you [Bb]down on a bed of [F]roses
