Noticed that no-one had posted this great old Waits tune, so here ya'll go
With some basic fill in bass string runs from the G chord up to the B7
and again from the G down to the E chord this sounds pretty passable
If you like it rate it,  * flatwound *
                             PONCHO'S LAMENT
                               Tom Waits
		   The stFairs sound so loGnely withFout you
E7   I ain't made my bed in a wFeek, Coffee stFains on the pGaper I'm wriFting A 
   And I'm tD7oo choked up inside to sGpeak
   Well yes  I kFnow  G  that our differences F  pulled us apart
 E7  Never spoke a word heart to heFart,   I'm gFlad tGhat you're gFone A 
   But I wD7ish to the LGord you'd come hFome  G 
Yes I'm gFla--aGd that you're gFone,E7  Got the feeling so stFrong
I'm glFad tGhat you're gFone,A  But I wD7ish to the LGord that you'd come hFome G 
   Well my guFitar still plGays your favForite song
E7   Though the strings have been outta tune for some tFime
   Every tFime I play a chGord,   I pFray out to the LAord
   That you'll qD7uit your honkey-tGonk and sing my sFong  G 
Yes I'm gFla--aGd that you're gFone,E7  Got the feeling so stFrong
I'm glFad tGhat you're gFone,A  But I wD7ish to the LGord that you'd come hFome G 
 F  So I'll Throw another lGog onto the fFire,
 E7  And, I'll admit I'm a lousy liar F 
   As the cFoals die down and flGicker, I hFear that guitar piAcker
   Play the sD7ong we used to sGing so long aFgo   G 
Yes I'm gFla--aGd glad that you're gFone,E7  Got the feeling so stFrong
I'm glFad tGhat you're gFone,A  But I wiD7sh to the LoGrd you'd come hoFme
