verse 1 
         E              F#m7 
I took a plane over the stars, 
          G#m7        G#7 
It didn't get me very far, 
       C#m7   C#m6         F#m7-G#m7  F#m7  E 
'Cause all my problems, they fol  -   low   me, 
E             F#m7                G#m7         G#7 
I flew to the moon, but it wasn't far enough a-way from you, 
       C#m7    C#m6         F#m7-G#m7  F#m7  B7 
'Cause all our problems, they fol  -   low   me, yeah, hey, yeah, 
 
 
 
    A     G#m7     C#m7     C#m6 
And every night, I close my eyes, 
    A      G#m7     C#m7 
And all my troubles fade, 
    A     G#m7    C#m7   C#m6 
But every morning when I rise, 
          F#m7             B7 
I'm still sleeping in this bed I made 
 
 
E F#m7 G#m7 G#7 
C#m7 C#m6 F#m7-G#m7 F#m7 E 
 
 
verse 2 
            E                  F#m7 
One million times inside of my mind, 
G#m7        G#7 
I have justified, 
    C#m7   C#m6          F#m7-G#m7  F#m7  E 
But all my problems still fol   -   low   me, 
    E              F#m7   G#m7     G#m6 
And I discovered a way to cleverly avoid the blame, 
    C#m7   C#m6          F#m7-G#m7  F#m7  B7 
But all my problems still fol   -   low   me, 
 
 
 
    A     G#m7     C#m7     C#m6 
And every night, I close my eyes, 
    A      G#m7     C#m7 
And all my troubles fade, 
    A     G#m7    C#m7   C#m6 
But every morning when I rise, 
          F#m7             B7 
I'm still sleeping in this bed I made 
 
 
Bridge 
 
F#m                          B7 
    Ohhh, I can't outrun the pain, oh, 
F#m                                  B7 
      Should have faced these demons as they came, yeah, 
F#m                       G#m 
      And what I wouldn't trade, 
   A                  B7 
To make some room in this bed I made, 
 
 
    A     G#m7     C#m7     C#m6 
And every night, I close my eyes, 
    A      G#m7     C#m7 
And all my troubles fade, 
    A     G#m7    C#m7   C#m6 
But every morning when I rise, 
          F#m7             B7 
I'm still sleeping in this bed I made 
          F#m7             B7 
I'm still sleeping in this bed, 
          F#m7       B            E 
I'm still sleeping in this bed I made.
