Bed of roses
Am
Sitting here wasted and wounded
Em
This old piano
Am
Trying hard to capture the moment
Em
This morning I don't know
Am Em
'Cause a bottle of vodka is still lodged in my head
Am Em
And some blond gave me nightmares
Am
Think she's still in my bed
C G C
As I dream about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead
[Verso 2:]
Em
With an ironclad fist
Am
I wake up, and French kiss the morning
G
While some marching band keepsits own beat
Em
In my head while we're talking
Am Em
About all of the things, that I long to believe
C Em Am
About love, the truth, what you mean to me
Em
And the truth is
C G C C G G*
Baby, you're all that I need
[Refr�o 1:]
G
I wanna lay
Am Em
You down in a bed of roses
G
For tonite
Am Em
I sleep on a bed of nails
G
Oh, I want to be
Em
Just as close as
G Em
The Holy Ghost is
G Em Am
And lay you down
Em
On a bed of roses
[Verso 3:]
Am
Well I'm so far away
Em
Step that I take is on my way home
Am
King's ransom in dimes
Em
Given each night to see through this payphone
Am
Still I run out of time
Em
Or it's hard to get through
Am
Till the bird on the wire
Em
Flies me back to you
Am
I'll just close my eyes, whisper
C G C C G G
Baby, blind love is true
[Refr�o 2:]
G
I wanna lay
Am Em
You down in a bed of roses
G
For tonite
Am Em
I sleep on a bed of nails
Am
Oh, I want to be
Em
Just as close as
G Em
The Holy Ghost is
G Em Am
And lay you down
Em
On a bed of roses
[Ponte:]
Am Em
Well this hotel bar hangover
G Em
Whiskey's gone dry the barkeeper's wig's crooked
Am
And she's giving me the eye
Em
I might have said yeah
Am Em G
But I laughed so hard I think I died, uh yeah!...
[Solo:] Am-G-Em (*3)
[Verso 4:]
Am Em
Now as you close your eyes
Am Em
Know I'll be thinking about you
Am Em
While my mistress she calls me
Am
To stand in her spotlight again
Em Am
Tonite, I won't be alone
Em
But you know that don't mean I'm not lonely
Am G Em
I've got nothing to prove for it's you
Am Em G G C C
That I'd die to defend
[Refr�o 3:]
G
I wanna lay
Am Em
You down in a bed of roses
G
For tonite
Am Em
I sleep on a bed of nails
Am
Oh, I want to be
Em
Just as close as
G Em
The Holy Ghost is
G Em Am
And lay you down
G
I wanna lay
Am Em
You down in a bed of roses
G
For tonite
Am G Am
I sleep on a be...ed of nails!
I want to be
Em
Just as close as
G Em
The Holy Ghost is!
G Em Am
Lay you down
A Em
The bed of roses
