Verse 1:
D Em7 C6 G C6 G
I write mostly on hotel paper
D Em7 C6 G C6 G
Knowing that my thoughts will never leave this room
D Em7 C6 G C6 G
I’d be out of line telling you, “leave her”
D Em7 C6 G C6 G
So I lie lonely surrounded by you
D Em7 C6 G C6 G
By you
Verse 2:
Lately I can’t be happy for no one
They think I need some time to myself
I try to smile but I can’t remember
And I know tomorrow they’ll be nothing else
Chorus:
D Em7 C6
And I
G D Em7 C6
wanted to be
G D Em7 C6 D Em7 C6 G
Giving you everything that she’s not giving
D Em7 C6
And I
G D Em7 C6
wanted to see
G Bm F#m G
Cause I didn’t believe what I’d been hearing
Verse 3
You turned out to be more than I bargained for
And I can tell that you need to get away
Forgive me if I admit that I’d love to love you
We both realized it way too late
(Chorus)
D
Maybe this wind blowing in just came from the ocean
D Em7 C6 G C6
I write mostly on hotel paper
