The Bed

G

                    D
I wake from trouble sleep
       C             G
In the middle of the night
                 D
Reaching for the soft hand
     C                 G
That once held mine so tight
   Em
My fingers touch the pillow
      C        D          G
Where you once layed your head
And I run my hand down
    C         D
The cold cold sheets
   F
on your side of the bed

G

                       D
My head spins from the perfume
     C             G
That lingers every place
                     D
And I kiss the trace of lipstick
     C              G
Left on your pillow case
    Em
And here in this nightmare of darkness
  C            D      G
I remember the day we wed
And I clutch and tear
       C            D
At the tear stained sheets
   F                  g
On my side of the bed

   C
My arms long to hold you
   F                    C
My lips hunger for your kiss
And I just couldn't
            F
Stand to go through
        D                      G
Another lonely night like this

                        D
These hands that once coressed you
       C               G
Take a bottle from the drawer
                     D
It says take one for sleeping
        C           G
But I'm taking many more
     Em
What good is there
                 C
In living if the dreams
   D        G
We shed are dead
So now at last
         C
I lay me down to sleep
                    G
On your side of the bed
