[Verse 1]
Em D A
Sorority sister Mississippi
Em D A
Old high school friend in Kansas City
Em D A Bm G
The only thing that we have left to talk about are faded memories
Em D A
I don’t sleep at all or sleep too much
Em D A
Can’t sleep through a crying baby or garbage truck
Em D A Bm G
There’s a note out on the counter saying help yourself to anything that you please
[Chorus]
G Bm
Borrowed rooms and old wood floors
G A
I lay me down at night
G A Bm
You don’t ask where home is anymore
Em A D
It’s just borrowed rooms and old wood floors
[Verse 2]
Em D A
Shower’s hot, hope it lasts
Em D A
Hair is getting longer down my back
Em D A Bm G
I lean under the water, close my eyes and let it wash me clean
Em D A
I live in other peoples’ homes
Em D A
Finish up the pot of coffee when it’s cold
Em D A Bm G
But my mother raised me right, I always write a thank you note and strip the sheets
[Chorus]
G Bm
Borrowed rooms and old wood floors
G A
I lay me down at night
G A Bm
You don’t ask where home is anymore
Em A D
It’s just borrowed rooms and old wood floors
[Refrain]
G
Was it this cold last year?
A
I can’t remember
D A Bm
The leaves are turning early for September
G A
I wish that I could stick around
D Bm
Another drive, another show, another stranger’s house
[Chorus]
G Bm
Borrowed rooms and old wood floors
G A
I lay me down at night
G A Bm
You don’t ask where home is anymore
Em A D
It’s just borrowed rooms and old wood floors
