Intro 1

Verse 1
G 
Sittin'
here wasted and wounded
D 
at this old pi ano
G 
I'm trying hard to capture the moment,
D 
this morning I don't know.
F#m 
Cause a bottle of vodka's
G 
still lodged in my head,
D 
some blonde gave me nightmares,
G 
I think that she's still in my bed.
As I dream about movies
A 
D 
they won't make of me when I'm dead
G 
With an iron clad fist
D 
I wake up a French kiss in the morning
G 
While some marching band
keeps its own beat in my head
D 
while we're talking
F#m 
About all of the things
D 
G 
that I  long to believe
D 
About love, the truth,
what you mean to me
G 
And the truth is
A 
D 
Baby, you're all that I need

as the Holy Ghost is
Bm 
A 
G 
D 
Lay you down on a bed of roses
G 
Well, I'm so far away,
each step that I take's
D 
on my way home.
G 
Kings, ransom, and dimes
I give each night
D 
to speak through this faithful home.
F#m 
Still I run   out of time,
G 
or it's hard to get through,
