Bed of Roses — Bon Jovi
Pencipta & penyanyi: Jon Bon Jovi
Tahun rilis: 1992 (dari album Keep the Faith)
Filosofi Singkat
“Bed of Roses” adalah kisah tentang penyesalan, cinta, dan kerinduan yang lahir dari kesalahan manusiawi. Lagu ini menggambarkan perjuangan seseorang yang merasa jauh dari orang yang dicintainya—secara fisik dan emosional—namun masih menyimpan harapan untuk menebus segalanya dengan ketulusan.
Secara filosofis, lagu ini berbicara tentang kontradiksi dalam cinta: bahwa seseorang bisa hancur tapi tetap mencintai, bisa salah tapi masih ingin memperbaiki. “Bed of Roses” mengajarkan bahwa cinta sejati tidak lahir dari kesempurnaan, tapi dari keberanian untuk mengakui luka dan tetap berharap meski segalanya terasa sulit.
Intro : Bb . F . (4x) Bb sitting here wasted and wounded F with this old piano Bb trying hard to capture F the moment this morning I don't know Am 'cause a bottle of vodka Bb still lodged in my head F and some blonde gave me nightmares Bb think that she's still in my bed as I dream about movies C F they won't make of me when I'm dead Bb with an ironclad fist F i wake up and french kiss the morning Bb while some marching band keeps its own beat in my head F while we're talking Am about all of the things Bb that I long to believe F about love the truth and what you mean to me Bb and the truth is, Bb C F F-G-F-E baby you're all that I need Reff : Dm C Bb F i wanna lay you down in a bed of roses Dm C/E Bb/F F for tonight I sleep on a bed of nails Bb F Oh, I wanna be just as close as Bb the holy ghost is Dm C/E Bb/F F and lay you down on a bed of roses Bb well I'm so far away F step that I takes on my way home Bb a king's ransom in dimes I give each night F to see through this payphone Am still I run out of time Bb or it's hard to get through F 'til' the bird on the wire flies me back to you Bb I'll just close my eyes and whisper Bb C F F-G-F-E baby blind love is true Reff : Dm C Bb F i wanna lay you down in a bed of roses Dm C/E Bb/F F for tonight I sleep on a bed of nails Bb F Oh, I wanna be just as close as Bb the holy ghost is Dm C/E Bb/F F F-G-F-E and lay you down on a bed of roses Bridge : Bb well, this hotel bar's hangover C whiskey's gone dry F the barkeeper's wig's crooked and she's giving me the eye Bb I might have said yeah Bb but I laughed so hard C F F-G-F-E I think I died, ooh yeah Interlude : Dm .
