Air Mattress (Taylor Hollingsworth)
from Outer South
chorded by Joey Kelly

This tune is rockin like!

on the chorus you could use F#m instead of the A Aadd9 A part if you like the 
sound of it, but you know... it's up to you!

The approximate chords:

Intro:
Asus4 A, A Aadd9 A   x2

D (xx0232@1)             AI (x02220@1)want to sleep on the air mattress with you
             D (xx0232@1)                AAnd (x02220@1)let the air leak out, the whole night through
            D (xx0232@1)               AAnd (x02220@1)as we sleep our bodies slowly meet
        D (xx0232@1)          AI (x02220@1)can feel it when your heart beats
