(VERSE: figure 1b is played over D-G chords during verses)
the bed at night is a liferaft
in the ocean of the dark
i hang my hands over the sides
and pray that god knows why
drifting somewhere in the black
feeling (low?) 'neath the blanket
and the weight of the mattress
the mistress of the sheets
(BRIDGE: play following chord progression using
bridge chord shapes shown above:
Second guitar plays figure two (shown above) over chords)
on many successive nights i've been miserable
give one (sense?) to sense the invisible
i know you're in this room
being (? ? ?)
(SOLO: play figure three over repeated chord
progression Dm-G...)
(VERSE)
the bed at night is a lifeboat
a throne off which you can (?) from
i hang my hands and feet over the sides
and pray to the space of what can never be known
