The News from Your Bed Chords & Lyrics by Bishop Allen
The News from Your Bed
guitar chords lyrics
Intro: G
G D
You were saving the date
C D
But you woke up too late
G D C
Pulled the covers down over your head
G D
You haven't left your front door
C D
For a week maybe more
G D C D
Tell me, hey, what's the news from your bed
C D
You know your face is all covered with your birthday cake
G D C
That you're eating in the kitchen at home
C D
Another banner year, a splendid day
G D C
Another inch or two that you've grown
C D
But it's hard to celebrate on your own
G D C D
There's a mouse in the cupboard that nibbles your crumbs
G D C
And you talk to him every night
G D C D
You say, 'Hey, Mr. Whiskers, I'm bored and I'm numb
G D C D
You can stay if you just treat me right'
C D
Just last year you were fortunate baby
G D C
And your friends circled around you in droves
C D
Are they thinking of you? Maybe just maybe
G D C
But not a one has bothered to phone
C D
Tell me where, oh, where did they go?
Interlude: G D C D x4
Am G
Called a car about an hour ago
Am
You're gonna take yourself out
G
Despite the cold and snow
Am
Did they forget about you?
G
Are they in on it too?
Am
You're sitting looking in the mirror
G C G D
At your dancing shoes
G D C D
When your family calls you make nice to them all
G D C D
And assure them you're fine and you're great
G D C D
Then you cry in the bath, cry so hard that you laugh
G D C D
Then you watch television til late
C D
Who do you need? Nobody
G D C
You're lucky nobody's around
C
I can pour my own drinks
D G D C D
No thanks, Mister. Go on, and get out of town
C G D G
And you're gorgeous in your evening gown
