Cheap Motel

	  		 
(A) A stark naked (E) light bulb in a (D) room with no view 
 
This (A) coffee tastes (E) bitter this (D) whiskey tastes new 
 
I (A) lied when I (E) told you that my (D) dreams all came true 

 
And it's a (A) helluva a (E) ride 
 
Leaves me (A) empty (D) inside 
 
And livin'(A) in (E) cheap motel (A) rooms
 
 
 
Another big city one more face with no name 
And it's miles to the edge of the bed where I lay 
The cracks in the ceiling spell out all my shame 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge 
Oh I (E) sit here and count every (D) mile that I've (A) crawled 
 
And every (E) mistake that I've (D) made 
 
While the (A) flowers (E) fade off the (D) wall 
 
But how do I start to stop a wheel that's on fire 
When I can't even tell from the words of a liar 
I'm tryin' to come down but I keep gettin' higher
