Bass notes on the E string are optional if you wish to add them,
I didn't because the song simply feels too sedate for that nonsense.
For the simple people.....

Intro:
x8
Ebmaj7 (Dm9)
I wake alone
(Ebmaj7) (Dm9)
in a woman's room I hardly know.
I wake alone
and pretend that I am finally home.
The room is littered
with her books and notebooks
I imagine what they say, like,
"Shoo fly don't bother me."
I can hardly get myself out of the bed
for fear of never lying in this bed again.
Oh Christ, I'm
not
Dmin7no5
that
desperate.
Oh no,
Dmin7no5
oh God.
I Am.
x8
(Ebmaj7) (Dm9) (Ebmaj7)
How'd I end up here to begin with?
(Dmin)
I don't know.
(Ebmaj7) (Dm9) (Ebmaj7)
Why do I start what I can't finish?
(Dm9) Ebmaj7
Oh please don't barrage me
with the questions
to all those ugly answers.
My ego's like my stomach,
it keeps shitting what I feed it.
But maybe I don't want to finish anything anymore.
Maybe I can wait in bed 'til she comes home
and whispers,
"You're in my web now,
I've come to wrap you up tight
'til it's time to bite down."
x8
(Ebmaj7)(Dm9)
I wake alone
(Ebmaj7) (Dm9)
in a woman's room I hardly know.
(Ebmaj7)(Dm9)
I wake alone
(Emaj7) (Dm9)
and pretend that I am finally home.
x8
Continue with "home"
end on the note G
