notes : i believe this song is actually played tuned a whole step down , in which case the
d’s would all be fingered as standard tuning open e’s , etc . for those of us who would
rather simply tune down the E – string and play it in drop D , the chords will be laid out as such .
also , whenever you sit on the D during the verses , you can mimic the bass line by playing
0 – 2 – 0 on the a string . if you listen to the song , you should get a feel for what i’m
referring to . for the “i’m simple” verse , you can slide up to the bar chord D to make it
sound like the recording .
the intro sequence is also the chorus and basically involves hitting the bass note
( low E string ) followed by an upstroke on the highest note of the chord for each
new chord . just remember that the chorus starts on the Gadd9 instead of on the D .
those chords are voiced as follows :
D : 00023
xGadd9 : 5×020
xd/F# : 4×02
xxem7 : 2×00
xxother chord voicings :
Em : 222000
A : x02220
G : 5×0003
D

my back a bed of roses

Gadd9 D/F# Em7 D
cold captain tied to the mast
next verse and chorus same as first :
i will call on the the telephone
i will call when you get mad
i’ll still love you to death
and i will never forget how
and i know that i won’t be
the easiest to set free
and i know that i won’t be the last cold captain tied to the mast
bridge :
Em A
i’m on the other side
Em A
when i’m satisfied
Em A
oh i’m a spirit dove
Em A
i’m looking for your love
next verse and extended chorus follow same as previous :
i’m simple as a matter of fact
punch you in the nose
don’t over – react
i’ll still love you to death
and i won’t ever forget how
and i know that i won’t be
the easiest to set free
and i know that i won’t be the last cold captain tied to the mast
and i know that i won’t be the one
to secure they’ll know what it’s from
but i hope i’ll know when it’s past
and i hope i’ll know when i show you my
