C      D        G
Here I lay in my bed
C            D                    G
Wondering how you are and where you've been.
C                          D            G    Dadd9    Em
I've got scratches on my hand from the cat begging for attention
C                     D                   G                               
Your memory on my lips from the other night when you kissed them

C       G           D*     (When playing the D: Hammer on, on the Open e. See at bottom of page.)
Politely subtle and crass.
Broken heart mending a castoff pirate and gypsy with class
C       G               D       (Strum Once)
I wasn't prepared for this.
To a ten second count down on New Years kiss.

            G    D      C         
And when I lay down tonight.
I've been up and down the coast.
Left, right, north, east, west ,back home south,
And I lay down tonight.
In North Carolina, Chicago, New York, and Hollywood and I.
I found nobody other than you.

C         D      G
So time is only a noose.
          C            D         G
With everyday that goes by I'm turning black and blue.
C          D        G  Dadd9  Em
Memories feeding my heart.
  C                     D
So much, but it only starves,

C          G                 D
Under the street lights and boulevards.
Like a candle that's light in the dark.
I will find.
And I will find you.

CHORUS

C         D         G
So here I lay in my bed.
C        D                  G
Some new hotel room, but it's mine for 110.
C        D               G    Dadd9 Em
Before I lay down I'm coming home tonight.
C                       D
Cause I'm gonna get you back.

A, E, D
