Hotel Paper

Hotel Paper by Michelle Branch

Tabbed by Cavyart

Standard Tuning

Capo fret 2 to match the cd recording and fret 3 to match the acoustic video

performance on the enhanced portion of the album.

Chords:

Verse 1:

I write mostly on hotel paper

Knowing that my thoughts will never leave this room

I’d be out of line telling you, “leave her”

So I lie lonely surrounded by you

By you

Verse 2:

Lately I can’t be happy for no one

They think I need some time to myself

I try to smile but I can’t remember

And I know tomorrow they’ll be nothing else

Chorus:

And I

wanted to be

Giving you everything that she’s not giving

And I

wanted to see

Cause I didn’t believe what I’d been hearing

Verse 3

You turned out to be more than I bargained for

And I can tell that you need to get away

Forgive me if I admit that I’d love to love you

We both realized it way too late

(Chorus)

Maybe this wind blowing in just came from the ocean

I write mostly on hotel paper
