Chords

Air Mattress (Taylor Hollingsworth) from Outer South chorded by Joey Kelly This tune is rockin like!
on the chorus you could use F#m instead of the A Aadd9 A part if you like the 
sound of it, but you know... it's up to you!
The approximate chords: Intro: Asus A, A Aadd9 A x2
             D               A
I want to sleep on the air mattress with you

             D                  A
And let the air leak out, the whole night through

            D                 A
And as we sleep our bodies slowly meet

        D            A
I can feel it when your heart beats

E, E6, E7, E7 E6 E
I do
Chorus:
D       E              A  Aadd9 A
The air mattress with you
(Can I sleep on?)
D       E              A
The air mattress with you
A
            D               A
It's under covers where it all begins

          D             A
And we pretend that we are just friends

               D              A
But when the others fall asleep, it ends

  D               A
We become lovers once again

E, E6, E7, E7 E6 E
We do

         My dreams, they have a holiday

Bm                             E
My lungs, they twist the night away

F#                  Bm
And even if I stay awake

E                            E7 E
I still get rest for hours

E                            E7 E
I still get rest for hours

I still get rest for hours
Solo: D, A Aadd9 A, D, E
         D               A
And even if there was a king-size bed

             D                   A
Where I can stretch my legs and lie my head

         D             A
All by myself, in the darkest room

                D                  A
Just know, that no matter what the options are

E, E6, E7, E7 E6 E
I choose . . .
