D                  G     D
 In a Mississippi hotel room
       Bm      A       G
 I was wounded and confused
      Bm             A       G
 As I watched the 10 o'clock news
D                   G          D
 I was waiting on a late night call
       Bm          A       G
 That I knew would never come
              Bm         A           G
 And though I doubt it's what you?d want
D                     G       D
 I call you from the steps outside
          Bm       A       G
 You say you were fast asleep
           Bm      A        G
 And every lie, it tortures me
            Bm       A       G
 I can't kill what does not bleed
               A
 So please explain


 Bm  A   G    D   A
 Can you tell me what it is you need?
        Bm   A    G   D   A
 'Cause I've been trying, still I cannot see
       Bm  A  G    D   A
 These wasted moments brought me to my knees
        G              A
 I just wanna give you everything

D                 G       D
 If morning is my darkest time
        Bm      A         G
 In the night I sometimes find
          Bm      A       G
 There is comfort without lie
D                 G        D
 I've been living with no hope
          Bm       A       G
 It was a shame to let it go
            Bm        A      G
 But it was drowning me so slow
D                   G     D
 I've never felt so far away
          Bm     A      G
 From the boy I used to be
       Bm        A       G
 And I wonder what he'd see
          Bm      A        G
 From the corner of some ship
               A
 He met me today

 
 Bm  A   G    D   A
 Can you tell me what it is you need?
        Bm   A    G   D   A
 'Cause I've been trying, still I cannot see
       Bm  A  G    D   A
 These wasted moments brought me to my knees
        G              A
 I just wanna give you everything

D                       G          D
 In the letter that you wrote me last
            Bm         A           G
 There were words that burned to hear
         Bm       A         G
 And red lipstick on the mirror
D                       G        D
 You said loving me's a great mistake
               Bm    A        G
 'Cause I have never loved myself
          Bm     A      G
 And I am sorry if you felt
            Bm        A      G
 that maybe you could offer help
                A
 To someone like me

 
 Bm  A   G    D   A
 Can you tell me what it is you need?
        Bm   A    G   D   A
 'Cause I've been trying, still I cannot see
       Bm  A  G    D   A
 These wasted moments brought me to my knees
        G              A
 I just wanna give you everything
