         the Dm and G chords in the following chord progression:

            D                 G
        the bed at night is a liferaft
               D             G
        in the ocean of the dark
          D              G
        i hang my hands over the sides
            D                  G
        and pray that god knows why
         C                 G
        drifting somewhere in the black
         F                        G
        feeling (low?) 'neath the blanket
                C             G
        and the weight of the mattress
            F               G
        the mistress of the sheets
        (BRIDGE: play following chord progression using
         bridge chord shapes shown above:
         Bb-F-C-Eb-Bb-F-Bb-F-C-Eb-Bb-F
         Second guitar plays figure two (shown above) over chords)
           Bb              F                C
        on many successive nights i've been miserable
          Eb                 Bb         F
        give one (sense?) to sense the invisible
          F
        i know you're in this room
        being (? ? ?)
        (SOLO: play figure three over repeated chord
         progression Dm-G...)
        (VERSE)
            D                 G
        the bed at night is a lifeboat
                 D                  G
        a throne off which you can (?) from
                  D                   G
        i hang my hands and feet over the sides
            D                             G        D
        and pray to the space of what can never be known
