Tuning:
This is one of my favorite songs by Tom Waits.
It sounds really beautiful with a not as raspy voice
sings it (no offense Tom). It is pretty simple. Standard
tuning. If you want the right key put a capo on the first
fret. You need to have a real low voice to match his key.
I usually end up putting a capo on the second or third
fret so I can reach the lower notes.Also, it takes a
while to get used to his rhythm and sound in the song.
But anyways, here is the chords if you don't already
know them:
C: x32010
F: xx3211
G: 320003
E: 022100
Am: x02210
C/B:x20010
C7 x32310
Fm: x33111
SomedayC the silver moon and I will Fgo to dreamland
I will Gclose my eyes and wake up there inC dreamland
And Tell me who will put Eflowers on a Amflower's grave?
FWho will say aG prayer?
Will I Cmeet a China rose there inF dreamland?
Or does Glove lie bleeding inC dreamland?
Are these days C/Bforever andF always?
And if we are to Cdie tonight
Is there a Gmoonlight upC aheC7ad?
And Fif we are toC die tonight
Another Grose will Cbloom
For a FfadedC rose
Will I be the oEne that you Fsave?
I Flove when itFm showers
But Cno one putsF flowers
COn aG flower'Cs grave
As one Frose blooms andC another will die
It's Galways been thatC waC7y
I Fremember theFm showers
But Cno one putsF flowers
COn aG flower'Cs grave
And Fif we are toC die tonight
Is there a Gmoonlight upC aheaC7d?
I Fremember theFm showers
But Cno one putsF flowers
COn aG flower'Cs grave
