Charlie McGettigan - Bed For The Night
CAPO: 5th Fret
[Intro]
C Em F G C Em F G
[Verse 1]
C Em F G C
He was standing on the corner as the sun was going down
G/B Am C Dm G
He was looking for a contact, he had just arrived in town
C Em F G Am
With his suitcase full of emptiness, his clothes are torn and tight
G F C F G C G
He was looking for a bed for the night
[Verse 2]
C Em F G C
And he had a list of numbers that had slipped out of his head
G/B Am C Dm G
An uncle lived in somewhere out in Manchester, he said
C Em F G Am
He had come out of a country where the tunnels had no light
G F C F G C G
He was looking for a bed for the night
[Chorus]
C Em
Just a bed for the night
F G Am
Somewhere warm till the morning light
G F C F G C Em F G
He was looking for a bed for the night
[Verse 3]
C Em F G C
And standing in the doorway was a man called Father John
G/B Am C Dm G
He said, "Come in from the cold and sit you down there, my good man"
C Em F G Am
And the small talk was of football and the tea tasted so right
G F C F G C G
And he was looking for a bed for the night
[Chorus]
C Em
Just a bed for the night
F G Am
Somewhere warm till the morning light
G F C F G C Em F G
He was looking for a bed for the night
[Instrumental]
C Em F G C Em F G
[Verse 4]
C Em F G C
There was something in this situation made me realize
G/B Am C Dm G
That there is always someone with a kindness in their eyes
C Em F G Am
So, if Father John should hear me, and who knows, he just might
G F C F G C G
Hear me say, "Thank you, for the bed for the night"
[Chorus]
C Em
Just a bed for the night
F G Am
Somewhere warm till the morning light
G F C F G C G
He was looking for a bed for the night
[Chorus]
C Em
Just a bed for the night
F G Am
Somewhere warm till the morning light
G F C F G C Em F G
He was looking for a bed for the night
C Em F G C
Just a bed_____ for the night
