[Intro 1]
[D][A][Bm][G][D][A][Bm][G]

[Verse 1]
There's [D]something
in your manner that [A]makes it hard to see
The [Bm]way you take advantage
of [G]wo men just like me
I've [D]seen you set them up,
I've [A]seen you take them down
[Bm]Love is legal tender for your
[A]kind of pass around
Don't [Em]want your bed of [D]roses[Bm]
[A]Don't want a hat full of tho[D]rns[Bm]
[A]Don't wanna be your liv[D]ing
[Bm]martyr[A]
Mistreated and [Em]torn[A]
Now I'm gonna [G]turn away
[A]As our chapter [Bm]closes
[G]I know I'm not gonna l[Em]ay me down
[A]In your bed of [Bm]roses[A]
I've [D]tasted good man love
In [A]honky -tonks and bobs
And [Bm]sev en for the moon
When I was [G]reachin' for the stars
Though [D]sometimes I have stumped
[A]I've been known to fall
[Bm]It was always true love that
[A]took me to the wall
Don't [Em]want your bed of [D]roses[Bm]
[A]Don't want a hat full of [D]thorns[Bm]
[A]Don't wanna be your living[D]
[Bm]martyr[A]
Mistreated and [Em]torn
[A]So now I'm gonna [G]turn the
[A]page[Asus4][Bm]
[G]No, I'm not going to lay [Em]me
down [A]in your bed of [Bm]roses
[G]No, I'm not going to lay[Em] me
down [A]in your bed of [Bm]roses
I'm going to [A]turn my heart [G]away
I'm going to turn my heart away
[Bm]And live to love[A] another day
[G]Live to love an[A]other [D]day
[A][Bm][G][D][A][Bm][A]
You whis[D]per that you want me,
[A]deep into my eyes
Tell [Bm]me I'm the only one w[G]ho
can bring you back to [D]life
Call it [A]intuition, call it what you will
I [Bm]won't give you half a [A]chance,
you're moving for the kill
Don't [Em]want your bed of [D]roses[Bm]
[A]Don't want your hat full of [D]thorns[Bm]
[A]Don't wanna be your liv[D]ing [Bm]marble
[A]It's treated a tol[Em]l
[A]So now I'm gonna [G]turn the page
[Asus4]Cause I tri[D]ed to [A]clo[Bm]se it
[G]No, I'm not gonna lay[Em] me down
[A]No, I better [D]close it
[Bm]Don't [A]want a handful of lov[D]e[Bm]
[A]Don't wanna be your liv[D]ing heartache
[Bm]Mis [A]-treated and tor[Em]n
[A]Now I'm [Asus4]gonna tur[G]n the page
[A]As our [D]chapter [Bm]closes
[G]Lord, you're [Em]gonna lay me down
[Asus4]On your b[A]ed of roses
No one will ever know
