[Verse 1]
D/B D
In this town television shuts off at two
D/B D
What can a lonely rock and roller do?

Oh, the bed's so big and the sheets are clean

And your girlfriend said that you were 19

The styrofoam ice bucket is full of ice
C Em D
Come up to my motel room, treat me nice
[Verse 2]
D/B D
I don't wanna make no late night New York calls
D/B D
I don't wanna stare at these ugly grass mat walls
A7 A7sus4
Chronologically I know you're young
A7 A7sus4
But when you kissed me in the club you bit my tongue
D Dsus4 D
I'll write a song for you and put it on my next LP
C Em D
Come up to my motel room, sleep with me
[Verse 3]
D/B D
There's a bible in the drawer, don't be afraid
D/B D
I'll put up a sign to warn the clean up maid
A7 A7sus4
Yes there's lots of soap, and lots of towels
A7 A7sus4
Nevermind those desk clerk's scowls
D Dsus4 D
I'll buy you breakfast, they'll think you're my wife

Come up to my motel room, save my life
