Tom Traubert's Blues (Four Sheets to the Wind in Copenhagen) - Tom Waits chords

Key: C Singer/Band: Tom Waits


capo 5 tone [C]
[F]Wasted and wounded, it [C/E]ain't what
the moon did, I've [Dm7]got what I [G7]paid for [C]now [Dm7] [C/E]
[F]See you tomorrow, hey [C/E]Frank, can I borrow a [D7]couple of bucks from
[G7]you
To go [C]waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda, [C/E]waltzing Ma[F]thilda,
[C/E]You'll go [C/F]waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda with [G7]me
[F]I'm an innocent victim of a [C/E]blinded alley
[Dm7]And I'm tired of all these [G7]soldiers [C]here [Dm7] [C/E]
[F]No one speaks English, and [C/E]everything's
broken, and my [D7]Stacys are soaking [G7]wet
To go [C]waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda, [C/E]waltzing Ma[F]thilda,
[C/E]You'll go [C/F]waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda with [G7]me
Now the [F]dogs are barking and the [C/E]taxi cab's parking
A [Dm7]lot they can [G7]do for [C]me [Dm7] [C/E]
I [F]begged you to stab me, you [C/E]tore my shirt open,
And I'm [Dm7]down on my knees to[G7]night
Old [F]Bushmill's I staggered, you'd [C/E]bury the dagger
In your [D7]silhouette window [G7]light
Go [C]waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda, [C/E]waltzing Ma[F]thilda,
[C/E]You'll go [C/F]waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda with [G7]me
Now I [F]lost my Saint Christopher [C/E]now that I've kissed her
[Dm7]And the one-armed [G7]bandit [C]knows [Dm7] [C/E]
And the [F]maverick Chinamen, and the [C/E]cold-blooded signs,
And the [Dm11]girls down by the [G7]strip-tease shows, go
[C]Waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda, [C/E]waltzing Ma[F]thilda,
[C/E]You'll go [C/F]waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda with [G7]me
No, I [F]don't want your sympathy, the [C/E]fugitives say
That the [Dm7]streets aren't for [G7]dreaming [C]now [Dm7] [C/E]
And [F]manslaughter dragnets and the [C/E]ghosts that sell memories,
They want a [Dm11]piece of the action [G7]anyhow
Go [C]waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda, [C/E]waltzing Ma[F]thilda,
[C/E]You'll go [C/F]waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda with [G7]me
And you can [F]ask any sailor, and the [C/E]keys from the jailor,
And the [Dm7]old men in [G7]wheelchairs [C]know [Dm7] [C/E]
And Ma[F]thilda's the defendant, she [C/E]killed about a hundred,
And she [Dm11]follows wherever you may [G7]go
[C]Waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda, [C/E]waltzing Ma[F]thilda,
[C/E]You'll go [C/F]waltzing Ma[Dm11]thilda with [G7]me
And it's a [F]battered old suitcase to a [C/E]hotel someplace,
And a [Dm7]wound that will [G7]never [C]heal [Dm7] [C/E]
No [F]prima donna, the [C/E]perfume is on an
Old [Dm11]shirt that is [G7]stained with [C]blood and whiskey [Dm7] [C/E]
And good[F]night to the street sweepers, the [C/E]night watchmen flame keepers
And good[Dm11]night to Ma[G7]thilda, [C]too [Dm7] [C/E] [F]
