[Verse 1]

Em               F              C
  This bed's an island made of feather down, and I'm stuck here alone
Em            F                            G
  With little else but memories of you, on memory foam
Em        F              C
  Visions of a brighter love, I'd kill for one more day
Em            F                      G           D(break)  
  To pool my thoughts, and find the words to say


[Chorus]

          F                C                   Am      G
If these sheets were the states, and you were miles away,
               F        C                Am         G  D - Em
I'd fold them end over end to bring you closer to me.
           F              C               Am           G
Because I don't sleep at all without you pressed up against me.
   Dm                                  F              G
I settle for long distance calls, I'm lost in empty pillow talk again.
Em - F     C
    I'm lost in empty pillow talk again

Em - F - G


[Verse 2]

Em                      F          C  
  This room's become a mausoleum, filled with relics of regret
Em        F             G  
  Paying dues to every moment wasted, on words left unsaid
Em           F           C
  Collisions of a finer love, I'd kill for one more way
Em            F                G
  To tell you how you make me better every day


[Chorus]

          F                C                   Am       G
If these sheets were the states, and you were miles away,
               F        C                 Am        G   D - Em
I'd fold them end over end to bring you closer to me.
           F              C               Am           G
Because I don't sleep at all without you pressed up against me.
    Dm                                 F              G
I settle for long distance calls, I'm lost in empty pillow talk again.
