Sitting here wasted and wounded at this old piano.

'Cause a bottle of vodka still lodged in my head and some blonde

As I dream about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead.

While some marching band keeps it's own beat in my head while we're talking 
         Em                         F 
About all of the things that I long to believe, 
          C                                                        F 
About love, the truth, what you mean to me and the truth is 
Dm           G      C 
     Baby you're all that I need. 

           Am      G          F      C 
I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses.

I wanna be just as close as your Holy Ghost is.

And Lay you down, on a bed of roses.

A king's ransom in dimes I'd give each night to see through this pay phone.

Still I'd run out of time or it's hard to get through till the bird on the wire
