A#
Sitting here wasted and wounded
              F
At this old piano
       A#
Trying hard to capture the moment
               F
This morning I don't know
         Am                
'Cause a bottle of vodka's 
      A#
still lodged in my head
         F
And some blond gave me nightmares
                             A#
Think that she's still in my bed
      A#                     
As I dream about movies they 
C                         F
won't make of me when I'm dead
 
 

 
        A#
With an iron-clad fist
I wake up, and 
                F
French kiss the morning
           A#
While some marching band keeps its own beat
                      F
In my head while we're talking
      Am                      
About all of the things, that 
   A#
I long to believe
       F
About love, the truth, what you mean to me
        A#
And the truth is
 A#          C        
Baby, you're all that 
   F   F  C  C 
I need
 
 

 
         Dm Dm
I wanna lay
     C        A#     F
You down in a bed of roses
       Dm  Dm
For tonight
  C          A#     F
I sleep on a bed of nails
              A#
Oh, I want to be
        F
Just as close as
    A#   F
The Holy Ghost is
    Dm  C   A#  A#
And lay you down
A#     A#     F
  On a bed of roses
 
 

 
          A#
Well, I'm so far away
Each step that I take's 
      F
on my way home
          A#
A King's ransom in dimes
I give each night to see 
              F
through this payphone
        Am
Still I run out of time
         A#
Or it's hard to get through
          F
Till the bird on the wire 
flies me back to you
      A#
I'll just close my eyes, and whisper
A#    C             F  F  C  C 
Baby, blind love is true
 
 

 
         Dm Dm
I wanna lay
     C         A#     F
You down in a bed of roses
       Dm  Dm
For tonight
    C         A#     F
I sleep on a bed of nails
               A#
Oh, I want to be
          F
Just as close as
     A#    F
The Holy Ghost is
    Dm  C   A#  A#
And lay you down
A#     A#     F     C
  On a bed of roses
 
 

 
            A#
Well, this hotel bar hangover
  C                 
Whiskey's gone dry, 
        F
the barkeeper's wig's crooked
 
And she's giving me the eye
   A#
I might have said yeah
       A#             C        
But I laughed so hard I think 
   F  F C   C
I died, uh yeah!

[Verse 4]
 
        A#
Now as you close your eyes
                        F
Know I'll be thinking about you
          A#
While my mistress she calls me
                         F
To stand in her spotlight again
            A#
Tonight, I won't be alone
But you know that 
                    F
don't mean I'm not lonely
         Dm         
I've got nothing to 
C              A#
prove for it's you
          A#       F   C
That I'd die to defend
 
 

 
         Dm Dm
I wanna lay
     C         A#     F
You down in a bed of roses
       Dm  Dm
For tonight
    C         A#     F
I sleep on a bed of nails
              A#
Oh, I want to be
         F
Just as close as
    A#   F
The Holy Ghost is
     Dm  C   A#     F  C
And lay you down
         Dm Dm
I wanna lay
     C         A#     F
You down in a bed of roses
       Dm  Dm
For tonight
    C         A#  F
I sleep on a be   ed of nails!
           A#
I want to be

The Holy Ghost is!
    Dm  C   A#  A#
And lay you down
A#     A#    F
    On a bed of roses
