[Intro]
D, Dsus4, D, Dsus4
[Verse 1]
D G
You asked if you could see me before I went to Spain
D G
You didn't give a reason, didn't know what you would say
D G
But I was hoping that my breath on your face
D G
Would blow every last thing into place
[Break]
Em, Bm, G
D
The bedspread decked in suns and moons
G
And symbols of the star signs
D G
How you read how mine applied to how I would be sex-wise
D G
And in my arms you disappeared and I seemed twice the size
D G
Slept and woke with lips together, sleeping felt like lies
[Break]
Bm, D, G, D
D, Dsus4, D, Dsus4 (x4)
[Pre-Chorus]
D Em
Girl, I helped you with your demons
G D
But your ghosts are now haunting me too
D Em
That French bitch, an ex-boyfriend
G D
Threatening to tie his neck to the roof
Bm D
But if we tiptoe through the true bits
Bm D G
We might make it to the other side
Bm D
What doesn't kill you leaves you wounded
Bm D G D
But I will nurse you better, alright
[Chorus]
D A Em D
I've been waking on your side of the bed
D A G
As the sun's been rising in the West
D A Em D
I've been waking on your side of the bed
D A G
As the sun's been rising in the West
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
D G
If your skin feels softer, I've no argument to make
D G
The weight of such apologies caused stronger men to ache
D G
If his kisses draw the bad out, I can't have a complaint
D G
As they hit your tongue like sedatives while I lay wide awake
[Break]
Em, Bm, G
[Bridge]
D G
You can feel a tremor in a single word
D G
It rattles down your spinal chord
D G
And you can catch a raincloud in an hourglass
D G
But it will turn into a storm
Bm A G
Knee deep in flowers we'll stray, you keep the showers away
[Pre-Chorus]
D Em
Girl, I helped you with your demons
G D
But your ghosts are now haunting me too
D Em
That French bitch, an ex-boyfriend
G D
Threatening to tie his neck to the roof
Bm D
But if we tiptoe through the true bits
Bm D G
We might make it to the other side
Bm D
What doesn't kill you leaves you wounded
Bm D G D
But I will nurse you better, alright
[Chorus]
D A Em D
I've been waking on your side of the bed
D A G
As the sun's been rising in the West
D A Em D
I've been waking on your side of the bed
D A G
As the sun's been rising in the West
