 BROKEN BED
 James McMurtry
 2X - ( E B A B )
 
 E                          B 
  Where''d you go last night
 A        B                
  I never heard you leaving
 E         B              
  Woke up in such a fright
 A                       B                 
  When I could no longer feel you breathing
             E                        B               
 And I could smell the rain, from the storm blowing in
       A                          B                   
 And I looked outside, where your car should have been
        E                           B            
 Just a street light''s glare, on an empty street
           A                    B            
 When that rain came down, in a twisted sheet
 
 Chorus
 A         B       A         B 
  Drive on slowly,  drive on by
           A                B    A B 
 One red rose, in the candlelight
 
 Where''d you go last night, when the show was over
 When the band quit playing, when the bar was closing
 When the rain slacked off, and the wind died down
 And a siren wailed, somewhere across town
 Nothing to be done, nothing to be said
 Just had to lay back down, on this broken bed
 
 Repeat Chorus
 
 Bridge
 A                   B   
  You could call me later
 A                       B          
  Walk me through this one more time
 A                       B               A B 
  I guess you got your needs and I got mine
