For the intro, I like to play these chords through the progression:
Ebmaj7 , Dm , Gm , Bm
Ebmaj7 , Dm , Gm , F



  Ebmaj7 Dm
I wake   alone,
     Gm             Bm
in a woman's room I hardly know.
  Emaj7 Dm            Gm             Bm
I wake  alone- and pretend that I am finally home.
    Ebmaj7  Dm                Gm        Bm      
The room is littered with her books and notebooks.
    Ebmaj7  Dm                    Gm              Bm
I imagine   what they say, like, 'Shoo fly, don't bother me,'


    Ebmaj7             Dm              Gm
And I can hardly get myself out of her bed.
Bm          Ebmaj7      Dm            Gm
for fear of never lying in this bed again.
               Ebmaj7  Dm7#5    Gm   F        Ebmaj7 Dm7#5     Gmin
Oh Christ, I'm not     that     desperate. oh no- oh God-    I am.



Ebmaj7            Dm              Gm         Bm
        How'd I end up here to begin with? I don't know.
Ebmaj7           Dm                 Gm
        Why do I start what I can't finish?
   Bm               Ebmaj7           Dm           Gmin              Bm
Oh please, don't barrage me with the questions to all those ugly answers.
   Ebmaj7        Dm                Gm              Bm
My ego's like my stomach- it keeps sh*tting what I feed it.
    Ebmaj7                Dm          Gm        Bm      
But maybe I don't want to finish anything anymore..
Ebmaj7              Dm           Gm          Bm
maybe I can wait in bed 'til she comes home. and whispers.


Ebmaj7  Dm    Gm  F     Ebmaj7 Dm      Gm                          F
"you're in my web now - I've   come to wrap you up tight 'til it's time to bite down."


  Ebmaj7 Dm
I wake   alone,
     Gm             Bm
in a woman's room I hardly know.
  Emaj7 Dm            Gm             Bm
I wake  alone- and pretend that I am finally home.

Ebmaj7 Dm Gm Bm
