[C]Room 16 the P[Bb]alms Motel
[F]Now I can rest behind the door
[C]My life with you's become a [Bb]living hell
[F]Don't wanna live like than no more
[Dm]And whatever it will [Bb]take[C]
[Dm]I will do to make this [Bb]final [C]break
[F]Yeah better off [Bb]without you[C]
[F]Better off wit[Bb]hout you[C]
[F]Better off witho[C]ut you in my [F]life
[C]So I'll unpack my bags
[Bb]And kick off these old [F]shoes
[C]This room is as good as anyplace I've [Bb]ever been
[F]For lookin at the truth
[Dm]Now it's all so clear to[Bb] me[C]

SOLO
[C]Looks like a change in the weather
[Bb]I can hear it start to [F]rain
[C]I hope it's not too [Bb]long this time
[F]Before the sun comes out again
[Dm]But if it rains f[Bb]orever[C]
