Subject: Two Tom Waits songs

1.st verse of Train Song by Tom Waits


C             F        C
Broke down in East St. Louis
       Bb          F
On the Kansas City Line
C        F      Am
Drunk up all my money
       D              Bb
That I borrowed every time
    G           C
And I fell down at the derby
Bb                    F
Night's as black as a crow
C              F       C         Am
It was a train took me away from here
      F         G        C
But a train can bring me home

1st verse:
C#m7        F#7           A7           G#7sus4  G#7
new coat of paint in this lonesome old town

C#m7    F#7          A7           G#7sus4  G#7
set 'em up, we'll be knocking 'em down

C#m7          F#7          A7          G#7sus4  
you'll wear a dress, baby, I'll wear a tie

G#7         C#m7               F#7           A7    G#7       C#m7
we laugh at that old bloodshot moon, in that bur - gundy sky _

Coda: Intro 4 times with lots of variations.

2nd verse:
all our soribbled love dreams are lost or trown away
here amidst a shuffle on a overthrowing day
our love needs a transfusion, let's shot it full of wine
fishing for a good time, start throwing in your line


Repeat 1st verse and then fade away with the intro


I just happened to have these, I didn t and couldn t transcribe them myself...
