The News From Your Bed

[G]

You were [G]saving the [D]date
But you w[C]oke up too l[D]ate
Pulled the c[G]overs down [D]over your h[C]ead
You haven't l[G]eft your front d[D]oor
For a w[C]eek maybe m[D]ore
Tell me, h[G]ey, what's the n[D]ews from your b[C]ed    [D]

You know your f[C]ace is all covered with your b[D]irthday cake
That you're e[G]ating in the k[D]itchen at h[C]ome
Another b[C]anner year, a sp[D]lendid day
Another i[G]nch or t[D]wo that you've g[C]rown
But it's h[C]ard to celebrate on your o[D]wn

There's a m[G]ouse in the c[D]upboard that n[C]ibbles your cr[D]umbs
And you t[G]alk to him e[D]very n[C]ight
You say, '[G]Hey, Mr. W[D]hiskers, I'm b[C]ored and I'm n[D]umb
You can s[G]tay if you j[D]ust treat me r[C]ight'   [D]

J[C]ust last year you were f[D]ortunate baby
And your f[G]riends circled ar[D]ound you in d[C]roves
Are they t[C]hinking of you? M[D]aybe just maybe
But n[G]ot a one has b[D]othered to p[C]hone
Tell me w[C]here, oh, where did they g[D]o?

[G] [D] [C] [D] x4

[Am]Called a car about an h[G]our ago
You're gonna [Am]take yourself out
Despite the c[G]old and snow
Did they fo[Am]rget about you?
Are they [G]in on it too?
You're sitting l[Am]ooking in the mirror
At your d[G]ancing s[C]hoes    [G]       [D]

When your f[G]amily c[D]alls you make n[C]ice to them a[D]ll
And ass[G]ure them you're f[D]ine and you're gr[C]eat  [D]
Then you c[G]ry in the b[D]ath, cry so ha[C]rd that you l[D]augh
Then you w[G]atch telev[D]ision til l[C]ate    [D]

[C]Who do you need? [D]  Nobody
You're l[G]ucky no[D]body's ar[C]ound
I can p[C]our my own drinks
[D]No thanks, Mister. Go o[G]n, and g[D]et out of t[C]own  [D]
And you're go[C]rgeous in your evening [G]go[D]wn[G]
