	        Intro Bb F

Bb                                            F
Sitting here wasted and wounded with this old piano.
       Bb                                         F
Trying hard to capture the moment, this morning I don't know.
         Am                    Bb                       F
'Cause a bottle of vodka still lies in my head and some blonde
                                                   Bb
Gave me nightmares, I think that she's still in my bed.
     Bb                      C                         F
As I think about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead.

        Bb                                          F
With an iron-clad fist I wake up to french-kiss the morning.
        Bb                                                        F
While a marching band keeps it's own beat in my head while we're talking
     Am                  Bb                       F         
About all of the things I longed to believe, about love, the truth,
                            Bb
What you mean to me and the truth is...
Bb          C                      F C/E
Baby you're all that I need.

Dm C Bb F I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses. Dm C/E Bb F Tonight I sleep on a bed of nails. Bb F Bb F I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is. Dm C/E Bb F Lay you down, on a bed of roses.
Bb F I'm so far away, each step that I take's on my way home. Bb F A king's ransom in dimes I'd give each night to see through this payphone. Am Bb F But I'd run out of time or it's hard to get through till the bird on the wire Bb Flies me back to you. I'll just close my eyes. Bb C F C/E And whisper 'baby blind love is true'.
Dm C Bb F I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses. Dm C/E Bb F Tonight I sleep on a bed of nails. Bb F Bb F I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is. Dm C/E Bb F C/E Lay you down, on a bed of roses.

Bridge:

Bb C The hotel bars hangover whiskey's gone dry. F The bartender's wig's crooked, she's giving me the eye. Bb Bb C F C/E I might've said yes, but I laughed so hard I think I died.
Solo Dm C Bb F Bb F Now as you close your eyes you know I'll be thinking about you. Bb F My mistress she calls me to stand in her spotlight again. Bb Bb F I won't be alone, you know that don't mean I'm not lonely. Dm C/E Bb F C/E I've got nothing to prove, for its you I'd die to defend.
Dm C Bb F I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses. Dm C/E Bb F Tonight I sleep on a bed of nails. Bb F Bb F I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is. Dm C/E Bb F C/E Lay you down, on a bed of roses
Dm C Bb F I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses. Dm C/E Bb F Tonight I sleep on a bed of nails. Bb F Bb F I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is. Dm C/E Bb F Lay you down, on a bed of roses
