Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb

This is a Tom Waits song, beautifully covered by Cosmo Sheldrake on his YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aN2vBQHJHJ0&list=PL0N5gLwVxOmlU1Y3emSIj4jiOZfX-5mnH&index=77 I love this version, although mind that Cosmo changed the chords, words, and melody up quite a bit. He also tuned his guitar not quite half a step down if you want to play along. All the chords are relative to the half step down, so in reality the song is in Bbm. He does some fun stuff with the bass notes, I would recommend watching the video for it. Furthermore, he plays some of his F#7 chords as follows: F#7: x1x320 [Verse 1]

The ^Bmbroken ^Gglass and the^Bm rusty ^Gnails ^DDown where the ^Awild violets g^Drow ^F#7 Say good^Bmbye to the r^Gailroad and the ^Bmmad dogs of ^Gsummer And ^Deverything that ^F#I used to k^Bmnow

[Chorus 1]

^GSome people do it for ^Bmdiamonds ^GSome people do it for ^Bmgold ^GGounded, but you just keep on c^Bmlimbin' And s^Gleep by the side of the roa - o^F#ad

There's a ^Bmhole in the l^Bm/A#adder, a f^Bm/Aence we can c^Emlimb ^EmMad as a h^Bmatter, you're ^Em/Gthin as a d^F#7ime Go ^Bmout to the m^Bm/A#eadow, the h^Bm/Aills are a-g^Emreen ^EmSing me a r^Bmainbow, s^F#teal me a d^Bmream

[Verse 2]

^BmSmall time N^Gapoleons s^Bmhattered his k^Gnees ^DBut he s^Atays in the s^Daddle for ^F#7Rose And ^Bmall his disc^Giples, they s^Bmhave in the ^Ggutter And they g^Dather what's l^F#eft of his ^Bmclothes

[Chorus 2]

^GSome people do it for ^Bmdiamonds ^GSome people do it for ^Bmgold ^GGounded, but you just keep on c^Bmlimbin' And s^Gleep by the side of the roa - o^F#ad
