Bon Jovi – Bed of roses
Intro : F C F C
F C F C
F
Sitting here wasted
C
And wounded at this old piano
F
Trying hard to capture the moment
C
This morning I don’t know
Em
‘Cause a bottle of vodka
F
Still lodged in my head
C
And some blonde
C
Gave me nightmares
F
Think that she’s still in my bed
F
As I dream about movies
G C
They won’t make of me when I’m dead
F
With an iron-clad fist I wake up
C
And French-kiss in the morning
F
While some marching band keeps
C
Its own beat in my head
C
While we’re talking
Em
About all of the things that
F
I longed to believe
C
About love, the truth
F
What you mean to me and the truth is
F G C – G
Baby, you’re all that I need
Reff :
Am G F C
I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
Am G F C
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
F C
I wanna be just as close as
F C
The Holy Ghost is
Am G F C
And lay you down on a bed of roses
F
Well I’m so far away each step
C
That I take’s on my way home
F
A king’s ransom in dimes I’d give each
C
Night to see thru this payphone.
Em F
Still I run out of time always hard
C
To get through till the bird on the wire
C
Flies me back to you
F
I’ll just close my eyes
F G C G
Whisper Baby blind love is true
Intro : G

Well, this hotel bar’s hangover

Whiskey’s gone dry

The barkeeper’s wig’s crooked

So hard I think I died oh yeah

Now as you close your eyes
C
You know I’ll be thinking about you,
F
While my mistress she calls me
C
To stand in her spotlight again.

Tonight I won’t be alone, but you know
C
That I don’t mean I’m not lonely
Am G
I’ve got nothing to prove
F C G
For it’s you I’d die to defend
