            [Verse 1]
 C
Sitting here wasted and wounded
              G
At this old piano
         C
Trying hard to capture
                           G
The moment this morning I don't know
          D
Cause a bottle of Vodka
           C
Is still lodged in my head
            G
And some blonde gave me nightmares
                                C
I think that she's still in my bed
       C
As I dream about movies
       D                         G
They won't make of me when I'm dead
           C
With an ironclad fist I wake up and
                   G
French kiss the morning
              C
While some marching band keeps
Its own beat in my head
               G
While we're talking
        D                        C
About all of the things that I long to believe
        G
About love and the truth and
What you mean to me
           C                  D          G        D
And the truth is baby you're all that I need...

[Chorus]
           Em       D        C      G
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
       Em      D         C        G
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
              C          G            C    G
Oh I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
    Em   D   C                G
And lay you down on a bed of roses

[Verse 2]
          C
Well I'm so far away
                                     G
That each step that I take is on my way home
          C
A king's ransom in dimes I'd given each night
                           G
Just to see through this payphone
         D
Still I run out of time
          C
Or it's hard to get through
          G
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
       C
I'll just close my eyes and whisper
 D                   G
Baby blind love is true

[Chorus]
           Em       D        C       G
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
       Em        D         C       G
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
              C           G
Oh I want to be just as close as
      C    G
The Holy Ghost is
     Em   D   C               G
And lay you down on a bed of roses

[Bridge]
      G                  D
The hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry
         C
The barkeeper's wig's crooked
            G
And she's giving me the eye
    D
I might have said yeah
                      C          G
But I laughed so hard I think I died

[Verse 3]
        C
Now as you close your eyes
                       G
Know I'll be thinking about you
           C
While my mistress she calls me
                            G
To stand in her spotlight again
            C
Tonight I won't be alone
But you know that don't
                 G
Mean I'm not lonely
            G         D
I've got nothing to prove
          C                     G      D
For it's you that I'd die to defend

[Chorus]
           Em      D         C      G
I want to lay you down in a bed of roses
       Em      D          C      G
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
          C           G            C     G
I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
     Em  D   C                G
And lay you down on a bed of roses
