The News From Your Bed  Bishop Allen

The Am's that aren't in the bridge could also be C's, but I kind of like the minor sound.
INTRO: G
You were [G]saving the [D]date
But you w[C]oke up too l[D]ate
Pulled the c[G]overs down [D]over your h[C]ead[D]
You haven't l[G]eft your front d[D]oor
For a w[C]eek maybe m[D]ore
Tell me, h[G]ey, what's the n[D]ews from your b[C]ed[D]
You know your f[Am]ace is all covered with your [D]birthday cake
That you're e[G]ating in the k[D]itchen at h[Em]ome
Another b[Am]anner year, a s[D]plendid day
Another i[G]nch or t[D]wo that you've g[Em]rown
But it's h[Am]ard to celebrate on your [C]own[D]
There's a m[G]ouse in the c[D]upboard that n[C]ibbles your cr[D]umbs
And you t[G]alk to him e[D]very n[C]ight[D]
You say, '[G]Hey, Mr. W[D]hiskers, I'm b[C]ored and I'm n[D]umb
You can s[G]tay if you j[D]ust treat me r[C]ight[D]
J[Am]ust last year you were fo[D]rtunate baby
And your f[G]riends circled ar[D]ound you in d[Em]roves
Are they t[Am]hinking of you? Ma[D]ybe just maybe
But n[G]ot a one has b[D]othered to p[Em]hone
Tell me w[Am]here, oh, where did they g[C]o?[D]
INTERLUDE: G D C D x4
BRIDGE:
[Am]Called a car about an h[G]our ago
You're gonna [Am]take yourself out
Despite the c[G]old and snow
Did they fo[Am]rget about you?
Are they [G]in on it too?
You're sitting l[Am]ooking in the mirror
At your d[G]ancing s[C]hoes[C] [D]
When your f[G]amily c[D]alls you make n[C]ice to them a[D]ll
And ass[G]ure them you're f[D]ine and you're gr[C]eat[D]
Then you c[G]ry in the b[D]ath, cry so ha[C]rd that you l[D]augh
Then you w[G]atch telev[D]ision til l[C]ate[D]
[Am]Who do you need? [D] Nobody
You're l[G]ucky no[D]body's ar[Em]ound
I can p[Am]our my own drinks
[D]No thanks, Mister. Go o[G]n, and g[D]et out of t[Em]own
And you're go[Am]rgeous in your evening g[C]ow[D]n[G]
This is my first tab; critique welcome! (Especially the bridge. That could be completely wrong.)
