Chords Bon Jovi Bed of Roses

 

Intro : C G C G

 C
Sitting here wasted and wounded
           G
This old piano
        C
Trying hard to capture the moment

                G
This morning I don't know
          Bm                       C
'Cause a bottle of vodka is still lodged in my head
           G
And some blond gave me nightmares
                         C
Think she's still in my bed
       C                    D                        G
As I dream about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead

**
        C
With an ironclad fist
                                G
I wake up, and French kiss the morning
            C
While some marching band keepsits own beat
                      G
In my head while we're talking
      Bm                        C
About all of the things, that I long to believe
       G
About love, the truth, what you mean to me
          C
And the truth is
 C          D           G   G  D D
Baby, you're all that I need

**

         Em Em
I wanna lay
     D        C     G
You down in a bed of roses
       Em Em
For tonight
    D         C     G
I sleep on a bed of nails
               C
Oh, I want to be
          G
Just as close as
     C    G
The Holy Ghost is
     Em  D   C  C
And lay you down
C      C     G
  On a bed of roses

**
          C
Well I'm so far away
                           G
Step that I take is on my way home
        C
King's ransom in dimes
                                      G
Given each night to see through this payphone
         Bm
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, whisper
 C     D             G  G D D
Baby, blind love is true

Chorus:
         Em Em
I wanna lay
     D         C     G
You down in a bed of roses
       Em  Em
For tonight
    D         C     G
I sleep on a bed of nails
               C
Oh, I want to be
          G
Just as close as
     C    G
The Holy Ghost is
     Em  D   C  C
And lay you down
C      C     G     D
  On a bed of roses

**

           C
Well this hotel bar hangover
  D                        G
Whiskey's gone dry the barkeeper's wig's crooked
And she's giving me the eye
   C
I might have said yeah
       C             D          G  G D   D
But I laughed so hard I think I died, uh yeah!...

Solo:
    Em D C G -3x-
    Em D C C C C  G

**
         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
                                      G
But you know that don't mean I'm not lonely
          Em          D            C
I've got nothing to prove for it's you
          C       G   D
That I'd die to defend

Chorus:
         Em Em
I wanna lay
     D         C     G
You down in a bed of roses
       Em  Em
For tonight
    D         C     G
I sleep on a bed of nails
               C
Oh, I want to be
          G
Just as close as
     C    G
The Holy Ghost is
     Em  D   C  C C
And lay you down
         Em Em
I wanna lay
     D         C     G
You down in a bed of roses
       Em  Em
For tonight
    D         C  G
I sleep on a be...ed of nails!
           C
I want to be
          G
Just as close as
     C    G
The Holy Ghost is!
 Em  D   C
Lay you down
C      C     G
    The bed of roses
