The Trash Can Sinatras
Drunken Chorus
----------------------
Intro - G D Am C D G Am C D (let ring...)
GI'm loAmoking Con the bright sidDe, but I still don't see the light
GWhy arAme frieCnds so hDard to find on Wednesday night'
GI got a teAmn pound note in Cmy pocket, Dthat'll never find its way back home.
GAnd you thought I'Cd be lonely whenG you'd gone.
GDiscipline isAm a shCelterD, the punishment's my home
GBuiAmlt on stCickDs and stones and now brittle bones
GI'mAm just a sClip oDf a thing and now I'm on the slide
G C G C-D-Am
And I get so confused on my own
AmBarmCaidGs beware
AmSweet-stoutC style and GwhiskeyD-drunk flair
CHORUS
GI'm dBmrinkinCg theD wishing well dry, and collecting the coins
GAnd mCy cupD's brimming over with bliss
GSeemsBm that Cwhen Ammy throat gets dry my words get wry
GAnd IC raDise my glasGs like a fist, and every sip's a kiss
You used to say my secrets were safe, and that I had no need to lock them
away
But I could kick myself to death for leaving you the key, and now I know
what security means to me
Hard to get a hold of what it means to me
And it's hard to get out of the gutter when it's raining feet and every
helping hand's a fist
CHORUS
SOLO (I know it starts on Am, I think it's:: Am C G, Am C G D, C
G C G C Am C D.....)
G G*
But hey where will I go, and now that you have gone........
Ending: G - Bm - G
G* - For the end, I switch back and forth on a barred G from regular to
335533, which sounds great.
There it is. The intro is wrong, I just put what I like to play. Really
fun to play around with a slide on
this, and two people make it even more fun. I usually play the chords
barred during the chrous; it leaves
the refrain twangy, and keeps the chorus full. Any probelms'
