Sitting here wasted and wounded

This old piano

Trying hard to capture the moment

This morning I don't know
Em F
'Cause a bottle of vodka is still lodged in my head

And some blond gave me nightmares

Think she's still in my bed

As I dream about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead
[Verso 2:]
F
With an ironclad fist
C
I wake up, and French kiss the morning

While some marching band keepsits own beat

In my head while we're talking

About all of the things, that I long to believe

Well I'm so far away

Step that I take is on my way home

Given each night to see through this payphone

Still I run out of time

Or it's hard to get through

Till the bird on the wire
Flies me back to you

I'll just close my eyes, whisper

Well this hotel bar hangover

To stand in her spotlight again
