Capo: 3

TWO GIRLS by Townes Van Zandt (Live at The Old Quarter) My version's just a little different from the previous version: Standard tuning Capo 3 *Townes does a bunch of hammer on's and off's throughout, especially on C, Am and Dm. Intro with a bunch of hammer on's: C-Dm-C-C

Well the ^Cclouds didn't look like ^Dmcotton, they didn't ^Geven l^Fook like c^Clouds. I was underneath the^Dm weather, and my f^Griends looked ^Flike a c^Crowd. The s^Amwimmin hole was ^Dmfull of rum, I ^Ftried to find out ^Cwhy. All^C I learned was ^Dmthis my friend, you've got to ^Gswim be^Ffore you ^Cfly.

CHORUS:

I've got ^Ftwo g^Cirls, one's in ^Amheaven, one's ^Dmbelow. ^AmOh one I love wi^Dmth all my heart, and ^Gone I ^Fdo not ^Cknow.

Two lonesome dudes on an ugly horse, passed by not long ago. They asked me where the action was, I said I did not know. And as they disappeared into the brush, I heard the driver say. He's a little slow between the ears, he's always been that way. CHORUS Jolly Jane just lays around and listens with her mouth. She's had about a dozen husbands, but the last one just pulled out. Now who's gonna bring her dinner, through the weary years ahead? All she'll get from me is sympathy, got no time to see she's fed. CHORUS Now cold down on the bayou, they say it's in your mind. But the moccasins are treadin' ice, and leavin' strange designs. Cajuns say the last time, this happened they weren't here. All Beaumont's full of penguins, and I'm a playin' it by ear. CHORUS x2
