Couldn't find this one anywhere... one of Tom's most depressing and emotive pieces, so here goes.
Am         E7
Daggers of moonlight

Am         E7
Murder the sheets

        Dm         G9          Esus4/B    E7
And the stink of a four dollar room

    Am             E7
And Daddy's gone a hunting

      Am       E7
For a dime bag schoolboy

     Dm        G9         Esus4/B   E7
Tied up with a yellow balloon

   Dm          G7    C?         Am7
So hush little baby, Daddy must go

     Dm        G7        Esus4      E7
I'll cover you up with a blanket of snow

       Am          E7 
By the time I make Jersey

Am           D7 
You'll be in heaven

     F7          E7         Am  D7  G  C9  F  E7 (pause A beat)
In a pretty blue shoe box I know

   Am             E7
So sing a song of ten grand

       Am             E7
With a pocket full of dough

      Dm             G9         Esus4/B      E7
And I can't take you with me to Baltimore

     Am        E7
Wake God up in Heaven

         Am        D7
Have him look down below

          F7          E7
There's a little lost angel

Am D7 G C9 F E7
Blooming...

          Am  (& windup, ending on A)
...in the snow
