^BSitting here wasted and wounded at this old ^Fpiano

Trying ^Bhard to capture the moment this morning I ^F don’t know

’Cause a ^Am bottle of vodka still ^Blodged in my head

And some ^Fblond gave me nightmares I think she’s still in my ^Bbed

As I dream about movies they ^C won’t make of me when I’m ^Fdead

With an ^Bironclad fist I wake up and French kiss the ^Fmorning

While some ^Bmarching band keeps its own beat in my head while we’re ^Ftalking

About ^Am all of the things that I ^Blong to believe

About ^Flove and the truth and what you mean to me

And the ^Btruth is ^Cbaby you’re all that ^FI need

I want to ^Dm lay you ^Cin a ^Bbed of ^Froses

For ^Dmtonight I ^Csleep on a ^Bbed on ^Fnails

I want to ^Bbe just as ^Fclose as the ^BHoly ^FGhost is

And ^Dmlay ^Cyou ^Bdown on bed of ^F roses

Well I’m ^Bso far away that each step that I take is on my ^F way home

A king’s ^Bransom in dimes I’d give each night to see through this ^F pay phone

Still I ^Am run out of time or it’s ^Bhard to get through

Till the ^Fbird on the wire flies me back to you

^B I’ll just close my eyes and whisper ^C"baby blind love is ^Ftrue"



®: This ^B hotel bar hangover ^Cwhiskey’s gone dry

The bar^Fkeeper’s wig’s crooked and she’s giving me the eye

I ^Bmight have said yeah but I laughed so hard ^CI think I ^Fdied

^Solo



Now as ^B you close your eyes know I’ll be thinking ^F about you

While my ^Bmistress she calls me to stand in her spotlight ^F again

Tonight I ^Bwon’t be alone but you know that don’t mean I’m not ^Flonely

I’ve got ^Bnothing to prove for it’s you ^C that I’d die to ^Fdefend
