Check Out Time

C#                          D#m7       G#
When I woke up this morning I was all alone
F#               C#  F#          C#         Bb7
Stretched out in bed two hundred miles from home in some old motel
D#m7                     Fm7     Bbm7
I don't know what's to become of me
                              C#
I know that check-out time is three

I didn't mean to hurt him, he has so much pride
I never dreamed I had to run and hide to this lonely room
I just hope he doesn't follow me
I know that check-out time is three

C#              F#
There's just no use
C#                  F#
Why try to make an excuse
C#              F#
I've lost great news
Because to be his wife
                                     C#
Well that would be just giving up on life

I've got to go on living, I just can't exist
I wanna taste all of the things I missed for his tender love
Till the day love catches up with me
That's always check-out time at three
