[Intro]
     Am
She doesn't have to go to work
         Am
but she doesn't want to stay in bed
               Em                              [E]
`cause it's changed from something comfortable
                      Am
to something else instead
________________________________________________________________________
[Verse 1]
      Am                            Em
This bed has seen it all from the first time to the last
       G                      Dmaj7
the silences of now and the good times of the past
         D7                            G
and it only cost ten pounds from the shop just down the road
                     Fmaj7               E                         Am
Mind you, that was seven years ago and things were very different then
________________________________________________________________________
[Verse 2] (same chords)
It didn't get much rest at first the headboard banging in the night
The neighbours didn't dare complain, Oh everything wqas going right
Now there's no need to complain `cause it never makes a sound
Something beautiful left town and she doesn't even know it's name
________________________________________________________________________
F                                 D
    Now every night she plays a silent game (ooh ooh ooh)

F                                       D
    called pretending nothing's going wrong

          G            Fmaj7
but she knows if this show was televised

              E                                     Am
no-one would watch it, not tonight But seven years ago...
_______________________________________________________________________
[verse chords...]
 La la lala lala la...
Now there's no need to complain `cause it never makes a sound
Something beautiful left town and she never even know it's name

repeat [Intro]

	This song is called Live Bed Show. Idiot.

No Picture jordan Average	#2 by jordan mcm at Sep 8, 1988 at 3:58 AM EST
	I thought it was a passionate relationship, which fel apart, and she pretends she dosn't mind, but she is all alone. Plup were the first band I ever saw live when I was 8.

No Picture Dusty Wanna Be	#3 by Dusty Delonge at Nov 30, 1989 at 9:28 PM EST
	The bitter taste of melancholy... mmmm! So sad to be stuck in yesterday instead of moving forward toward a better tomorow.

No Picture FrEAk!!! Wanna Be	#4 by FrEAk!!! Matis at Jan 8, 1997 at 5:18 PM EST
	What a sad song. I'd say it's about a poor woman who's a bit past her prime and isn't getting any action. It reminds me of " The Rocking Chair" by The Beautiful South.

No Picture josh Average	#5 by josh stagel at Feb 13, 2003 at 7:17 PM EST
	I agree. But the thing is "something beautiful left town": I've always assumed this meant her beauty/attractiveness/sexual allure. But today it struck me this could be a lover, the cause of her 'headboard banging'. So perhaps its a deceitfully romantic love song... Or it's just Pulp being Pulp.

	I like the beautiful South. And Pulp. Wish I had a bed.
