For the intro, I like to play these chords through the progression:
Ebmaj7 , Dm , Gm , Bm
Ebmaj7 , Dm , Gm , F
I [Ebmaj7]wake [Dm]alone,
in a [Gm]woman's room I [Bm]hardly know.
I [Emaj7]wake [Dm]alone- and pre[Gm]tend that I am [Bm]finally home.
The [Ebmaj7]room is [Dm]littered with her [Gm]books and [Bm]notebooks.
I im[Ebmaj7]agine [Dm]what they say, like, '[Gm]Shoo fly, don't [Bm]bother me,'
And [Ebmaj7]I can hardly get my[Dm]self out of her [Gm]bed.
[Bm]for fear of [Ebmaj7]never lying [Dm]in this bed ag[Gm]ain.
Oh Christ, I'm [Ebmaj7]not [Dm7#5]that [Gm]despe[F]rate. oh [Ebmaj7]no- oh [Dm7#5]God- I [Gmin]am.
[Ebmaj7] How'd I en[Dm]d up here to beg[Gm]in with? I [Bm]don't know.
[Ebmaj7] Why do I [Dm]start what I can't [Gm]finish?
Oh [Bm]please, don't bar[Ebmaj7]rage me with the [Dm]questions to [Gmin]all those ugly ans[Bm]wers.
My [Ebmaj7]ego's like my [Dm]stomach- it keeps [Gm]sh*tting what I [Bm]feed it.
But [Ebmaj7]maybe I don't want to [Dm]finish anyth[Gm]ing anymor[Bm]e..
[Ebmaj7]maybe I can wait in [Dm]bed 'til she [Gm]comes home. [Bm]and whispers.
[Ebmaj7]"you're [Dm]in my [Gm]web [F]now - [Ebmaj7]I've [Dm]come to [Gm]wrap you up tight 'til it's [F]time to bite down."
I [Ebmaj7]wake [Dm]alone,
in a [Gm]woman's room I [Bm]hardly know.
I [Emaj7]wake [Dm]alone- and pre[Gm]tend that I am [Bm]finally home.
[Ebmaj7] [Dm] [Gm] [Bm]
