Tom Waits – Downtown (Guitar)

(Verse)

Am7                                E7
Red pants and the Sugar-man in the temple street gloom, 

Am7                        E7
drinkin' Chivas Regal in a four   dollar room, 

Am7                             E7
Just another dead soldier in a  pow-der blue night,

Am7                          E7 
Sugarman says 'Baby, ev'ry - thing's alright' 

(Chorus)

      Am     D      Am     D      E7
Goin' down - town,  down - town,  down. 

      Am     D        E7   /
Goin' down - town     down

(Same sequence for all verses and choruses) Montclaire de Havelin doin' the St. Vitus dance, lookin' for someone to chop the lumber in his pants, How am I gonna unload all of this ice and all this mink All the traffic in the street but it's so hard to think, Goin' downtown, downtown, down. Goin' downtown, down. Frankie's wearin' lipstick Pierre Cardin, I swear to God I seen him holdin' hands with Jimmy Bond, Sally's high on crank and hungry for some sweets, she's fem in the sheets but she's butch in the streets, Goin' downtown, downtown, down. Goin' downtown, down. It's the cool of the evening the Sun's goin' down, I want to hold you in my arms I wanna push you around, I want to break your bottle and spill out all your charms, come on baby we'll set off all the burglar alarms, Goin' downtown, downtown, down. Goin' downtown, down.
