Chords

Title: Jayne's Blue Wish Artist: Tom Waits Album: Orphans (Bawlers) One of my favourite Waits songs! Terrible that noone has tabbed it! So here goes! Okay the chords are played in barre chord form for the majority of the time and there a few augmented thrown in there too which will be marked with a *! So here is a list of chords used: D- x5777x Bm- x24432 Em- x79987 B~- 7xxxxx A- 577655 G7- 353433 G7*- 4534xx A*- 6776xx D/F#- 2x0230

Bm/F#- 2x4432
/- slide

When the song requires a change from D to D/F# the D is open. Unless you want to make it for yourself! Intro: D Bm / Em A

    D         Bm  /   Em
The sky holds all our wishes

B~  A                      D    D/F#
The dish ran away with the spoon

G7      G7*            D            Bm
Chimney smoke ties the roofs to the sky

 /        Em           B~
There's a hole overhead

     A
It's only the moon

           D    Bm   Em  B~
Will there ever be a tree

A              A*         Bm  Bm/F#
Grown from the seeds I've sown

G7 G7* D Bm / Em

         D    D/F#
Life is a path lit only by the light of those I've loved

       Em       A       D
By the light of those I loved

There is then a horn solo over the same chords until the last line is repeated, again the same chords! Finish on D and that's the song! You can change between barre and open if you want but I'm sure that he uses barre Anywho hope you enjoy it! Another masterpiece from the legend that is Tom Waits!
